Thursday they determined it was stage4. Unknown type.

Yesterday we met the doctor. It's leiomyosarcoma (LMS). And it's aggressive and absolutely horrible. She starts chemo tomorrow and docs said there's little chance because of how far it has spread already.

She's 61 and the most silly, loving, absent minded mother ever. And I love her. It's hard to see my dad go through this and now all he keeps saying is he will join her in heaven soon and he has no reason to be here without her. She doesn't work so the only reason he won't quit his job this very instant is to keep her insurance til the last moment. Then he will quit and wait for his time.

I ask for any prayers to fight this cancer. For the strength of our family and friends to get through this
Ill keep you in my thoughts. I went through this with my mom (Stage 4 Lung Cancer - nonsmoker). She and my dad were married 56 years.

Keep your thoughts positive and be there for her and your dad. As the saying goes.....prepare for the worst, hope for the best, and accept what God decides to give you.

Prayers for your mom. But also you and your dad as well. I'm sure you are all in shock right now... Your dad needs some support as well... I would encourage him to keep working should the worse case happen. It will keep him focused on something else.

Prayers are with your mom & family.

I know this might be far fetched but if you want; let us know her address because I'd love to mail her a card or something. The only reason why I suggest is that because I had another friend with same instance. It will be from random people, but BMW family of course. I wish you and your family nothing but the best.

Never been much of a praying kind of guy. But I've been doing a lot of it lately. Your mom is in my prayers.

I'm not religious, but I wish you all the best (and of course your Mom).

Did you hear/read about the Methadone success fighting cancer? A German Doctor (woman) healed some ppl. Methadone can be prescribed by any doctor (at least in Europe).

A female with Breast Cancer at my Company is checking this new possibility as well.
