Thankyou again for all the information... Mum is at home now recovering from her operation ...we are a pretty strong family so im sure we will get through it .. To answer your question no she hasn't been told it's terminal so we still pray all goes well ....she is going to the doctors to get staples out on Thursday then I guess we are waiting to get results back from the operation ... Can u tell me what the results are all about? Is it to find out how many nodes were cancerous? Spread? In 5 weeks she begins her radio treatment ... bless everyone xx
