My 78 yo female friend, just today, was DX with metastatic breast and bone cancer.
For several years she had been complaining of pain due to rheumatoid artritis,, but for past few months the pain was quite severe, to the point she has been in bed this last week. The pain was so severe that she went to the ER last pm.
As I type this, she is in surgery for multiple hairline fx to her r femur. She fell last spring and had a rod put in her femur, this has the fx s around it now. What are her options, if any, for her RX?
I'm a retired OR nurse and she always calls on me for support. She has a mentally challenged 47 yo daughter who lives w her. What can I do to answer her questions? They live in NH and I'm in AL now.
