My mom is 69 and has just been diagnosed with stage 4 non small cell lung cancer. We were expecting this, but it's still very hard. She has it in her left lung, on the mediastinum and on her right adrenal gland. We will hopefully be seeing the oncologist next week. We don't know how long she has, but outcomes don't look good, mean life expectancy of 8 months. This is hard to believe! She is someone that really wants to know prognosis, she is a planner and is trying to get her life in order. Any comments, advice, stories that might help us?
