Mum has Alzheimers, she has just been diagnosed with lung cancer. What experiences do other have?
Dad doesn't want her to have any treatment, I'm erring on the side of removal of tumour by keyhole. I don't think mum would cope going every day for radiotherapy which is the other option. Mum said she like anything that woukd make her feel better but then she didn't really know why she was at the hospital today.
We've agreed for her to have a PET scan so that we might learn more about the tumour eg how aggressive it is then to decide after that.
Any thoughts? I'm quite torn
