Peri-rectal Cancer Posted: 03-28-06 14:01pm
Hi ppl. I'm faithann(27yrs old). I'm new
to this forum. My mom(47yrs old) is the
one with colon cancer. She has been
having a cyst(sp?) like thing by her bum
hole for alil over a yr and it turned in
to a huge hole. They told her over and
over that it's just a hemroid and to deal
with it. Damn I hate jersey doctors.
Anyways, she just could not deal with the
24/7 pain anymore. She had to use the
bathroom in the shower cause she could not
sit. It hurt for her to even lay on her
side. She tried to killer self...Thank
goodness she didn't do a good job of ;)
it! But one of the doc (a new one)
finally said she (mom) has had enough and
we need to do exploritory surgery. And
come to find out she has colon cancer.
And has devoloped a golf ball size
tumar/mass in her vagina. She was told
that she has an apt for march 31 to get
all the info about the 4wk radiation and
6mo (everyday) chemo(sp?)
now here is the problem, i'm the only kid
she has that is worth a health question,
ya know. And we are stationed in germany.
We have been given the option for
them(a.F.) to fly us back for the time
being so I can help my mom or they will
have us stationed to the closest base
which is only the next town over if it
turns out to be terminal. The air force
is really good to thier ppl!
Is there a chance that it could be
terminal?? I don't want to go in to
details but from what she has been telling
me...She is falling apart.
