Well my mom's tumor cell count tripled so the doc's experimenting with a new regimin of chemo that is tearing up her mouth with sores and she can't eat and is almost too skinny and its really tearing me up. But the good news is I followed my sister's footsteps & graduated from the nursing program last December.so now I'm a nurse/no longer @ starbucks but still love coffee.

Oh, Middie, that's horrible news... I know how you feel because I just lost my mother (that's why I've been away for a while). It's so sad and I feel horrible. She had cancer, too. It took only 5 - 6 weeks and she was gone... Has your mother tried these:  If she has difficulties to eat I think these might help. Oh, what am I thinking, you're a nurse... (congrats!) It's just that I think I know how you feel. Been there. Done that. I hope no-one else has to. *hugs* |

O m g.  so sorry. its very hard. It must be very hard 4 you. I know that even now I'm a nurse I am still absolutely terrified. Sofar she's lived past what the doc said which was 6 months because it had spread and its in her liver from her stomach. I make her icies or slushies that help numb her tongue so she can eat something and ensure. Thankyou for your thoughtfulness. I will take that idea in concideration cuz I'm trying 2 find food she likes & can tolerate. Been making lots of pudding lately *yum*  |

My mother thought FortiCare tasted good. There is also other Clinical Nutrition (for example Nutridrink) but we thought FortiCare is better because it's meant for people who have cancer. Where do you live? I'm afraid it's available only in Europe so far but I'm not sure. It's first market launch was in France 2004, I think.
My mother had her cancer in her pancreas as well as liver. She was sick like 5 or 6 weeks and then she was gone! I can hardly believe it cuz it feels like she's only travelling somewhere and will come home eventually... But I know she wont.
It's great that your mom has lived longer than they (doctors) expected! Then there's still hope, I guess... I wish all the best for you and your mom! My thoughts are with you.

I'm so sorry about your mother, thats gotta be tough. Cancer is a scary thing. My uncle died of AIDS, it was tough to see what he went through.
Congrats on being a nurse, it must be exciting not having to work at starbucks anymore.

:yes: now I go up to the drive thru. I hope there's hope. She was diagnosed a year ago in March. She had lab work done last week but the tumor markers went up again. I don't get it. We can put people on the moon & explore space & make microwaves but we have yet to discover how 2 kill a cell/tumor/or HIV virus. I think there's cures 4 these things but pharmasudical companies would lose profits from all the crap there selling us. From what I learned about cancer in nursing/we know that certain hormones increase & how cell replication gets out of control. well great. We know the causes & how it starts. So they want 2 keep telling me they don't know how 2 stop it? Sorry.. Just ranting.
