Hello everyone. My mother-in law was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer in January this year. She confessed she had new she had it a long time before she found out but put off going till January.
Its been six/seven month since then and she has had 3 treatments of chemo but it never worked so they tried immunotherapy and she hasn’t even had her second treatment as she has ended up in hospital.
Right now she has lost over two stone in no less than a month. She has been in hospital now three weeks and has not ate nothing and drank very little. She looks like a corpse. She won’t talk to anyone apart from yes no and hello. She won’t see her husband either and will only let me and my partner see her and also won’t have the curtains open or light on in her room. It’s heartbreaking. Even though she isint eating she’s still throwing up regularly and she is wearing big pads as the diarrhoea is just coming out of her constantly without her even realising. And the colour of the fluid coming out is just green also the sick is green too. And it’s not just a little bit. It’s so much coming out of her. On three weeks she’s gone from talking eating and walking to bed bound in a wheel chair and can’t self care nomore. She now has a feeding tube in and is on a constant drip. Can anyone give me advice if this has ever happened to anyone you know or what we should expect in the next few weeks. Could she pull through from this???
