My mom has been through radiation her last treatment is on Monday the 10th. Im not sure of the stage but i know that they give her 6th months to a year. We had a second opinion and they said there was nothing they could do that would be any different for mom. THey are trying to get her rash under control. My moms has two small mets in the brain and a spot on her spine besides the one on her lung. the ones in her head are shrinking.

Hi everyone i hope no one cares if i vent. My mom has nsclc we found out on memorial day. My life has been on a rollercoaster ever since. I still live at home with my mom, dad and sister iam 32 years old, I know i am a loser. I try to help with mom as much as possible and fix her meals. Mom has had problems ever since the diagnosis first she coulndt keep anything down they fixed that then she became constipated then they fixed that her legs were swelled they are trying to fix that but i dont understand why she cant walk since her legs have gone down. Is this normal? now she cant eat because it burns her throat because she hase some kind of rash. It hurts me to see her suffer. This morning we took her to the hospital. I was hurt and went outside to cry my father come outside and broke down and said he coundnt do this all by himself. I was hurt that he was hurt but it also made me feel like i hadnt helped any, is it selfish of me to want to get hospice to help I cant lift her to change her depends and i mentioned to my father and he said it was a good idea. I feel week and inadequate as a daughter. I had talked about getting myself an apartment and i think this hurt my father thinking i was going to leave. But i wasnt trying to run away from moms situation. Can someone please give me some advice?

Hi its me liz my mom is feeling pretty good today considering her situation. We live in Waverly a really tiny town in southern Ohio. Mom is having radiation and then chemotherapy I think im kind of confused about her traetments. Im pretty sure thats how it is going to go. I thank you for all your kind notes it has helped me so much.

Thank you for your nice words of encouragement. I feel a little better knowing theres someone i can talk to you all have been wonderful. Knowing people have survived gives me great hope.

My name is liz and my life has been shaken upside down. my mom has non small cell lung cancer and iam heartbroken all i want to do is ball my eyes out. The docter told us that she had 6 months to a year to live. We have taken her for a second opinion and it is still the same conclusion. I want to know if there are people who have been told this and have proven the docters wrong. I cant lose her she is my angel. Please please give me some hope it hurts so bad
