After reading everything in the site I have given you the URL for, I don't
quite understand why they have given up on your mother. Yes, her cancer is
serious; but there are many therapies for it, to include a stint; etc. I
would urge you to get a second opinion for your mother and I also would urge
that someone be with your mother when she goes to the doctor and therapy.
This is important to have a second set of ear's. I hope this has helped and
please know should you have more questions or need more help we are here for
you. Your friend, lillian
