Lost my mother November 15 2001 (49 yrs old). It was breast cancer at first. Radiation and chemo and surgery got it. We had our hopes up and were loving life when her hips started hurting real bad. Test come back bone cancer. The most painful of them all. 4 months later she passed. We were real close. I could not speak of it for 5 yrs. and after over 10 yrs it's still tough. I'm a man of faith as was she. Her favorite scripture and something she found comfort in was John 5:19-24 and John 5:28-29

Damn man, thats a tough one. Sorry for your loss. If I remember your age right you were only a few years older than I am right now. I couldnt imagine going through that right now, or even a couple of years from now. And at 49, thats really young.
This threads startin to bum me out..

heres an update from my mom, i copied and pasted it from facebook since its kind of a lot of info.
Had a review of a CT scan this morning. The good news is that the cancer has NOT spread to other parts of my body. The bad news is that the tumor did not shrink after 3 chemo infusions as hoped. At this point the cancer is contained as the tumor itself. It did change shape and is no longer "inflamed" or causing irritation to other organs. Good for me as I haven't had any pain or major discomfort from carrying this thing around. In this case, the chemo did help as the tumor stopped growing/spreading. As of now, surgery will hopefully be scheduled in the next couple of weeks. They had hoped the tumor would shrink enough for easier removal, but at this point they will have to do the best they can with removing it at its present ~11.90 cm size. It's original size was ~12.97 cm. It did shrink a tiny bit but they still consider it pretty large. Will keep you posed as to how the surgery will go and results afterwards. Three more chemo infusions will continue after the surgery to finish the 6-phase infusion process. Good news or bad news depends on how you look at it, I guess.

Yeah, its the worst. They scheduled surgery for the may 7 and she has an appointment this coming thursday for an overview of what exactly theyre going to do. the most important thing is that the cancer hasnt spread and the tumor is self contained so if surgery goes smooth, after the last 3 chemo infusions it SHOULD be smooth sailing.
