My aunt has been fighting stage 4 for almost 10 years now. ITs been ten years of different drugs and chemo treatments. Most of it she has lived pretty well, especially with her husband taking such good care of her. The man is saint, rich Chicago guy, married a younger women. Never thought she would go first.
This summer she decided not take anymore treatment. My mom and uncle {her brother, not husband} went out and visited a couple times, and she changed her mind. It is supposed to give her another year. The first treatments they did were supposed to give her two or three years. Money can buy some good years with some types of cancer.
I am sorry for what you are going through. I lost 3 out of my last 4 dogs to cancer at 3,5, and 10. They were pretty good friends and three of the best dogs I have ever seen. Loosing human friends is worse. I lost one of my students this summer. Its been pretty tough especially since we are getting started again. It reminds me of all plans I had for her. But my plans for her don't supersede gods.
