Today she has an appointment to see an Oncologist doctor to see about removing the spots in her lungs.
I think they will say she is to weak to have surgery. So today we will find out our options.[:(]

They are going to do a test on that and see if it is cancer also. They believe it is cancer.
She was told today that she is not in good enough shape for surgery and she told them surgery was not an option.
All that is left is radiation. They told her that their was 2 options the first was go in and put markers around the cancer and use precision target to kill the cancer.
She said no to that. The other thing is to just radiate a bigger area. That is what Mom chose.
She has 2 options on radiation. The first is 3 mega doses. The second is 5 doses every other day. Each one has the same amount of radiation just spread over more time.
The bad thing is Mom saw what cancer did to me. She saw radiation eat me up. I told her i had 35 doses and 2 times more than they recomend but they had to do that to kill the cancer.
So we will start radiation within the next 2 weeks. Mom will try that and if she does not like it she will stop it.
Like my sister and i told her everything is her decision. Do what she wants.
They think they can kill the cancer with just radiation because they caught the cancer really early. They were looking for something else when they found it. They were looking for a stroke when they found cancer. Its only 1.4 cm now.
If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!
If it was me I would just want palliative care and live life as good as I can.
