I am so sorry to hear that. I don't want to tell you one way or another, because many people are different. My father just passed away on the 9th of November, and he had lung cancer. I know that he knew for a few months, but we are not even sure what stage it was in. Hang in there dear, and be strong for yourself, family, and mother, and I will be praying for you.

I am so sorry to hear this....the best thing you can do is to be right by your mom's side...tell her everything you want her to know...ask her everything you think you need to hear...enjoy the time you have with her JUST IN CASE...then you won't regret anything...and if everything works out well, you got a chance to appreciate her ....

my mom died of cancer. at stage IV that is pretty bad (sorry to say). the cancer has already spread too far. its probably in her lymphnodes and once its in there the outcome is not good. just make her life as comfortable as possible. see her as much as u can and cherish everyday. she is gonna be very weak and will need u to help her though it all. it was a nightmare. no one should have to go through this. im so sorry for u and ur family. stay strong

Incurable means they don't have any medicine they can give her to make it go away. They may continue to treat her with chemo as long as she wants. This is always good because the longer they prolong her the better chance that some new medical miracle will come out and help us beat cancer. There are miracles out there and hopefully she will be one of those great stories we hear about. My mom had stage IV but it was everywhere in her body when they found it. she lived a lot longer than they told her she would. You really need to sit down and talk to your mom about this so you can hep each other. you are in my thoughts!

Stage IV usually means incurable,however it does't mean that she can't live for a long time.My wife has stage IV kidney cancer and was told she had less then a year.That was over four years ago and she is still here and doing great and I think she will be around for a long time.Don't lose hope and remember to FIGHT LIKE HELL!

Honestly, only God really knows that. I have witness the power of prayer as being the solution to all our real problems. I know that when things like this that happens, it happens because we are tested by God. It is the devils job to help to think that God can change things for the greater good. The key to heaven is faith. The key to prayer as working is faith. Many people are saying that they are finding or seeking the promises of Lord Jesus but what many people don't know that Jesus has never left you. Are really home is real home is in heaven but my religions don't understand that we all live for Jesus whether we want it or not. We are all children of God, and God never breaks his promise. Did you know that you can hold a bible and know all the scriptures but honestly what good is faith if you don't believe. We all try to take control of our lives but only God our creator really has all the control. Honestly, it is God's will. But be a person with love because God is love. Give prayer a chance and see it prayer works.

NO NO NO! Incurable doesn't mean death. Your Mom, and I, have Stage IV cancer. You have to remember that with Stage IV we will never be free from the disease as some women might be if they have surgery to remove the cancerous masses. With Stage IV we come to basically manage a chronic condition. You need to try to look at what you Mom is doing as something more like managing diabetes or heart disease. There are things she has to do, meds she has to take and treatments she has to go through to keep the cancer from growing. Ultimately we would love it and feel secure and 'well' if we could get the label NED (no evidence of disease) and move forward but we can't.Stage IV is not a death sentence. It is a condition that has to be managed over years and years and years.It is incurable but many women live with this condition for 10 -20 or 30 years.Peace!
