MAT,

I just talked to the onocologist and they said that the prognosis is very poor and that the only option at this point would be Chemo and only for comfort. It will not prolong her life.
The thing is they want to do CT scans and Biopsies when we are thinking why, it won't help or change anything. They said they need the biopsy to determine the chemo they will use. The one they are thinking of, they don't think will make her as sick and actually will help her feel better.
I have not heard of any chemo doing that.

MAT, tell me does hospice stay with the patient 24/7? what do they offer?

I just don't know if we should put her through this But, in the end the decision is still hers. She does still have some of her senses about her.
