    @adriansummer I'm really sorry to hear that you and your mother are going through this. It's very scary at the beginning when the diagnosis is being made. But hang in there. There are many treatments available for advanced breast cancer, so hopefully your mother will be ok. We'll be able to help more when you know what you're dealing with.
