    Well, I dont really know what to say.

    The results are in and its the big *C* ~ they are pretty sure its secondry to the reast cancer but a few more tests are needed to determine treatment and an MRI has been booked.

    Mum was gutted at the results but the oncologist has made her feel loads better with talk of *if this doesnt work there is this, or this, or this* etc (does that make sense)

    Her parting shot to him was *This bugger aint gonna stop me from seeing my grandkids grow up*

    Main priority now is getting her up here. House is ready she just needs to sign for it and if she has to go bankrupt then so be it, in the grand scheme of things its not number one at the minute.

    Thanks to you all for your support :D

    Sorry to hear that Tig but with the right treatment and her positive attitude hopefully things will be fine. she sounds like a fighter - I like her!

    like you say at times like these money is not the most important thing but being close to you will do her a power of good.

    Take care. x

  • Oh bloody hell JO, your mum sounds as much of a fighter as you. That's half the battle.
