My moms cancer has metastasized to her ribs and spine . Which happens to 40% of lung cancer patients . The damn disease has no cure and they are giving her radiation to ease the pain . I have an appointment with her Oncologist today with my brothers .

It came on fast and sudden . One day we were together most of the day and Mom was happy and full of energy . Then the very next night it reared its ugly head and by Monday 3/21 Mom was in the hospital . It took us all off guard.

We gave this disease a damn good fight but are loosing the attle . Mom is such a strong woman .

Please pray for her so as not to endure too much discomfort

I know you are the kind of guy that is going to project that strength to your mom and rest of your family too. The power of faith can do amazing things. I am going to get your mom on the prayer line of the Sisters of St Joseph if that is OK. I just need her first name if that is ok.

Chris, thoughts for your Mom. My wife of 29-1/2 years lost her battle with cancer January 16 of this year and my Mom just entered hospice for her battle. It is a horrible thing to see someone go through. All you can do is live and appreciate each day..........
