Hi im 22yrs old with a 19month old daughter and im 9 weeks pregnant, my mum is 43 and 3 days ago was diagnosed with bowel cancer and advanced secondary liver cancer! The hospital said that they can remove the tumor from my mums bowel, but the secondary liver cancer is inoperpable as it has peppered the whole liver. But they are going to start her on chemo once a fortnight for six months.

I am no expert on the subject, but I can relate what happened with my mother-in-law.

First, it depends on how advaced the liver cancer is. My mother-in-law had secondary liver cancer but it had also spread other places too.

From my personal experience, by the time she was told it had spread to her liver, she wasn't feeling well already and there was very little time between being told and her passing away. Keep in mind however, that everyone is different and it is all relative to the individual. I wish I had some better news, but I can only relate to my own personal experience

Thank you very much for your reply, im really not sure whats happening the doctors are now saying they are not going to do the operation to remove it from her bowel, because they want to start her on chemo straight away. As it is advanced and is fast growing and they dont want it to spread past the liver. The only illness my mother has is the anemia which is due to the bleeding tumor in her bowel she has no other symptons. The doctors havent told us how long she has got only that it is uncurable, i really dont know what to think.
