Bad news.

My mom had an appointment with a plastic surgeon today, the best in the area, to determine what can be done to fix the wound in my mother’s chest.
He said that IF he were to remove her lung (which they say will never heal on it's own due to infection), he believed she would not survive.
He said that the radiation had done so much damage to her, that there was nothing he could do for her.
He also said that the large wound in her chest may never heal.

I spoke to my mom briefly and she is becoming more and more depressed.

I will be able to hold my mommy’s hand in 3 days.
