Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Sad news ... but I can understand their feeling of relief in finally knowing what is going on... Knowing might reduce her stress and make things better... Won't make it go away... but it's still a relief... My thoughts are with you all...

A girlfriend of mine just went through this in December with her father. One thing that helped pain wise is the first few ties he went to the hospital to get the stomach drained, then they decided to put a shunt in so the build up of fluid could automatically drain from the stomach. This did not help with his prognosis, he had been fighting Pancreatic, liver cancer that had spread to the bone marrow and then to the stomach. What it did though was make him comfortable. When he needed the stomach drained he could not eat and was on some really strong pain killers that did not touch the pain but made him droughy and incoherent. When the stomach was drained he could eat and did not need the pain killers..you could have a conversation with him, which is what the family needed in order to spend time with him and being able to eat kept his energy levels up. I know tihs is a difficult thing not only on your mom but on the whole family and my heart goes out to you. A stunt although requiring proper cleaning and care may make mom more comfortable.
