Thanks Sharon, and everyone else.

No she doesn,'t see an oncologist. She refuses all test and procedures except

for pain control. She just wants to go " home " . As far as she is concerned, the

subject is closed, so when the time comes, I will deal with it then. I'm leaning

towards having the test done, when she's gone.

Cindylouwho.

.......If it were me I think I would have the testing done to put my mind at

ease and to know for sure if I need to have the regular " family

hisotry " testing done (i.e frequent colonoscopies etc) or if it was

something else entirely that is or is not genetic/ hereditary........

I am

sure that your Mum would understand that the worry and knowing is

THAT important to you and wouldn't have a problem. I can fully

understand that she doesn't want any more tests done while she is

alive as she has had enough and I can fully understand that, but if

having this test done after her passing could save one of her

children or grandchildren I am sure she would be all for it (if she

was able to think objectivaly about it, but it could be that this is

just to much for her to think about (what will be done after she

passes etc).
