Secondary Breast Cancer

My mun has breast cancer,it was detected early enough, she got the lumped remove and later the left breast, but unfortunately for her when she was getting sick all the time, she went for a check up and the doctor said the cancer had spread all over her body and there is nothing they could do about it and now she has been left alone,the doctos dont see her again and told her to just wait for death. But i believe there could still be something,because she is to young to die, she is just 41. Please help me out and let me know if she could surive it. Thanks.

Look at breastcancer.org. Ask questions there. Very good site.

the drug she is using is tamoxifen for now,but she can not stand nor seat or even do things on her own.

When was your mom first diagnosed and what type was it then? Was it in her lymph nodes then? I would get a second opinion. I just can't believe if they caught hers early the 1st time theres nothing they can do now.
