That's a nasty disease. Condolences to you and your family.

Did she have surgery at some point?

Thanks so much. She had a hard go of it. She was given 2 months to live, but she fought back and saw both my sister and I grow up and saw the birth of all eight of her grandchildren. She also survived a second bout of cancer in 2001: a completely unrelated primary tumour.
