    I'm with you and your family in my thoughts and prayers Connor. If it helps - the mother of a friend of mine had the same two years ago. The therapy helped and she's now well again. God bless you and your family!

    Sorry to hear about your Mom's illness.
    She will need a lot of love and support, so keep a cheerful attitude to help her through this. Progress in breast cancer treatment has improved tremendously in the last few years, so although cancer is a scary word, it can be cured.
    She should also join an association where she will also get a lot of support from other women who have fought it and won. It helps tremendously when you can share your experiences and ask questions.
    Good luck to your Mom and to you keep faith

    So sorry to hear that, Connor. Know that your mum and your family are in our prayers. It may be a tough situation, but there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

    Connor I'm sorry to hear of this news.

    I don't want to scare you but my mother passed away last year and I just want to say that you should ask questions and be involved with her treatment as much as possible (or as much as you can take - I'm not sure of your age). Now that we as a family look back at the circumstances surrounding my mom's death we feel we should have done more so I want to pass that on to everyone who reads this. Never be afraid to ask questions and demand a second opinion if the Physician declines.

    Of course some parts of the world have better medical treatment than others but I just wanted to get that out there - take care Connor and best wishes to your mom :)

    Sorry to hear about this Connor, I hope she is OK. Like Stan says, try to get involved and ask questions, it might be frightening for you but it will be even more so for her.

    My Dad had cancer and it was hard to hear from the doctors but you need to know so you can help - be there for her - best wishes to your mum and to you.

    My mother beat cancer last year, so there are many successes as well as failures.

    Indeed, especially if you catch it sooner then later.

    So sorry to hear that, Connor. I have a friend who's battling breast cancer right now, and she's doing well. I do hope and pray that your mum will be well soon.

    Connor, very sad to hear this news.

    My mother-in-law past away 3 years ago from breast cancer. She was diagnosed WAY too late for them to do anything to help her. On the other hand, my father-in-law had prostate cancer, was diagnosed early & beat the hell out of it. He's doing great.

    My wishes & prayers are with you & your family.

    Connor,

    Sorry to hear about that. I hope the treatments go well and a recovery is in her future.

    I'm supposed to be doing a redesign sometime soon for The Fit Mitt. The owner is currently dealing with the pains of treatment right now herself, so things are kind of on hold.

    It's a pretty interesting product.

    My mom just had surgery today and it went very well. The surgery was delayed a week because they found another lump. It turned out to be binign so thats good. Sh will have some radiation too, and i don't think we'll have to do chemo. I'll keep posting updates.
