My son got engaged to his partner end of October 2020 but couldn't buy the ring as shops were in lockdown. She hadn't felt well for a while but became really ill in the December, turned out she had to have emergency surgery to remove a mass on her bowel. During Covid no one able to visit her so she was alone when she got the news it was cancer and Stage 3.
She had chemo and we thought hopefully that was the worst over and actually wasn't too ill or sick and we were happy she didn't lose her lovely long hair.
Then December 2021 she had a lump around her stoma thought it was a hernia turned out it was ovarian cancer. Another surgery but they couldn't remove another tumour so she had more chemo to try to shrink it then they were going to do targeted chemo. She had a scan and then nothing said about the treatment. There were spots on her liver.
A few weeks ago she became breathless and pain in shoulders. She now has a bad cough and they've said it's fluid on the lungs but not enough to drain. So she's home after a 2 day stay in hospital with oral morphine she is taking at night.
Now she's not really eating much and being sick.My son is obviously very worried as am I .
The dream wedding isn't happening but early on my son said if it wasn't good news he would still want to marry the love of his life.
She's only 35 and has a daughter (not sons) it's just heartbreaking although I still hope something can be done to help her .
