hi all. I just wanted to share my mums story.. she was first diagnosed in December 2017 with limited small cell with mass in her chest and one lymph node involved.. she started chemo cistiplatin and eptisode straight away and had 4 cycles of this and then went on to have preventative brain radiotherapy and to the lymph nodes. We then got a scan and got told she had brilliant response so would have a check up in 3 months time but as she went home she expiernced back pain that got worse so she went and had a mri spine and they found the cancer has metastised to the spine and liver she then went on to have second line chemo CAV she had 4 cycles of this also and that fineshed in November 2018 she then had another scan to check and the spine mets were progressively growing and they told her no more treatment and would probably have just months. So my mum declines in January and stayed in bed a lot but was still quiet active.. she had a fall last Sunday 10th Feb she was lucky she didn’t break any bones.. she also had her birthday on the 13th of Feb and had a great day with family and was well with it. The day after I got a call from my dad to say my mum had just gone very suddenly she said she felt sick and needed a drink and all of sudden she just went!! She battled through this for 14 months and stayed strong throughout. I just wanted to tell her story xx. Love you mum RIP xxxx
