My mom is dying from cancer

My mom is only 53 and the last years have been hell for her. She got a rare form of cancer in the form of a large tumor around her femur. First they did chemo and radiation and then surgery to remove it, and she was ok for awhile. Then it came back so they amputated her leg above the knee. Then the cancer started to spread all over after the amputation, even though they said amputating would get rid of the cancer... Now it's in her bones and she is pretty much permanently in bed. Kaiser has given her hospice care now. So I don't know how much time she has left, she hasn't told me and I don't know if the doctors have told her anything. All I know is that this really sucks cus I have always been very close to her. I am her only son. I'm not a religeous person but I am a spiritual person. But right now I figure some hopes and prayers from anyone couldn't hurt. I am crying as I write this. I want to thank anyone in advance who cares. I don't think I am going to come back to read this topic because I think it will be too heartbreaking for me. So please don't feel offended if I don't respond.

"May all beings attain Perfect Peace!"

Iam really sorry for your mother, I hope god comes through and heals all her pains.

I really wish these things would never happen.

My wife and I are sending prayers your way. You and your mother have the strength and courage I wish I could possess.

I feel your pain. I lost my Grandmother to cancer and it was a drawn out painful experience. I will never forget the day my mom called with the bad news. My prayers go out to your family. I hope for the best in this dire time.

My deepest sympathies and hopes for you and your mother. If you are reading this, and there's anything I can do, please let me know.

I be praying

My Mom only had like 2 months to live in 86 of Lung Cancer of Smoking

Whoa, that is rough, which is a huge under exaggeration. It's also kind of a coincidence since my grandfather was just diagnosed with cancer a couple days ago. There was a cancerous lump growing by his stomach and lungs. It was removed and hopefully it doesn't or hasn't spread to the rest of him. He'll go into chemo in the coming weeks.

Well, enough about my problem. I hope that your mother will come out of this unscathed and in perfect health. Maybe they could try putting some blast processing in her. That'll fix her right up. ;)

man, trust me i know from personal experience that god can work miracles if you have faith. not to get all preachy, but thats where the real hope lies... faith in god and that he can do ANYTHING.

I'm sorry to hear this. My dad went in pretty much the same from brain cancer in 08'. They amputated one of his legs due to blood clots from the chemo and everything. I'll hope for a miracle that your mother pulls through.

Sorry to hear that bro.

You have my prayers and my hopes for a brighter future. I know what it is like having to watch what cancer can do to a close family member. That is why every summer my wife and I participate in the ACS Relay for Life. I think it helps her get closure by helping others. :sorry:

i'm sorry for your mother..i feel your pain too, my grandfather died in January for a cancer in his stomach, my grandmother have a cancer on her left pinky and my mom have the same cancer growing in the stomach too (or better, this is what i understood, sometimes my parents talks about this cancer when they think i can't hear them)

I wish best for you and your mom. I lost my grandfather thanks to cancer :(

Sorry to hear that ;__;.

My friends mum has also cancer (breast) and I worrie for her too.

My prayers and best wishes.

Im worried about my parents, as they have messed up their body too with smoking + alcohol and I am scared they might have some kind of cancer too. They could or couldnt but big risk there is, because they do smoke a looooooooot.
