Emily, my Mom has gone through several recurrences in the last 5 years now and is doing well so far. She cannot have anything by mouth but has gotten used to her PEG. She's gained some weight and is now up to 112 lbs. Her biggest complaint is being short of breath but she has oxygen to supplement when needed. Each time I see her she looks like she's getting a little stronger. I'm saying prayers that she will be around for a good, long while but also know that God is in charge of that. Will be keeping your mother and your family in my prayers as well. Good luck with her future appointments and surgery. Take care.
