My mother was just diagnosed with Stage IV breast cancer.
She has always been healthy, now all of a sudden at age 63 this news has devastated our family. From what I understand, this can be "managed" but not "cured". Her dream of seeing her grandchildren graduate high school (they are both under 4) appears to be unlikely.
She and my son adore each other. The thought of her being too weak, frail and ill to enjoy her time with him...well, there are tears streaming down my face right now.
Prayers please...our family will never be the same.

From my family to yours,
