Thank you Malka,
Talked to her GP yesterday who looked at the ents notes and made a few suggestions for the remaining months of her life. He did recommend the tubes, stating that death by slow suffocation or starvation was not pleasant or the desireable path to follow. He also stated that his opinion on the radiation was - if they cannot say that they think it will improve the quality of her life then don't risk the quality she has now for the months that are left. He put in a referral for hospice care and gave her several different options for pain management. The PET scan was done last Friday and we see the tumor panel next Monday. After we see them and digest their recommendations, then mom will finally have to decide.... This is all very difficult. Thanks for your input, appreciate it.
