I am so sad to read of your mothers cancer and the fact that they cannot fix your thorax problem.
My cousin's motherin-inlaw had esaphegeal cancer at about the same age as your mother. She did not survive it, but I do not remember what the treatment was, if any. I will email him and ask. Of course every case if different so the info may may useless.
You are having an absolutely horrible year. Hopefully things will turn into sunshine and rainbows soon. Keep your chin up.
Take care,
Eileen
