I see you are PA, I'm in NJ but just moved here. Even still I'm close to PA. Where is she being seen? Fox Chase, Penn? Where in PA are you. It may not hurt to get another opinion.

I'm happy that you are seeing a therapist. It took me a long time to fianally do that and I'm much better now that I did. Don't think of the what if's if you can help it...it will just drive you crazy.

So, you are scared to be with her but scared to be away from her also? Do I understand you correctly? IF so, that is hard and I hope your therapist can help you work through that. It's nice that you have sisters. Have you talked to them about how you are feeling? Does your mom know why you are staying away?

My guess is the case worker deals with this everyday and they don't live with it day in and day out. We're ALWAYS here for you. Feel free to send me PM if you want to vent.

They said it's inoperable? But they still think she has a good chance? Who said that and when?
