Nadi, my mum was diagnosed with bc in both breasts 3 years ago. She has come through the process like the trouper she is. Mum turned 80 in June. My dad has terminal cancer having started with bowel cancer and now has it in his liver and lungs. He now has weekly chemo which takes it toll on him and mum.
When I was diagnosed with bc in June it was harder telling my parents than my two girls.
Its such a hard journey for everyone and watching my dad who was a very active, strong man used to being so independent, who has been reduced to watching tv all day.
I truly hope your mum's results show no bc, but if she does like you I am sure she will stay strong.
Much strength to you and your family
