My mother had a lumpectomy last Feb and now she has a tumor the size of a baseball. She has went from on back woods treatment to the next. Now she is in Arkansa doing a treatment that claims to kill cancer and states the race is over. Anyone with advice i am sick to my stomach and cant sleep!

    That's rough. Have you let your mom know how you feel?

    There's really not a lot you can do to change her mind if this is the course she's choosing. Let her know you're concerned and would like her to get a second opinion from a breast center but sadly, you can't drag her to one. But do speak up so you will know you did what you could.

    You can't save people from themselves.

    Take care,
    Kari
