So, the doctors messed up. They got my mom's and another patients file mixed up. They called and told my mom she was stage 1....they called back today and basically said "Sorry, gave you the wrong stage. You're a stage 3 now, not a stage 1, and it's progressing rather quickly". How the hell do you mix up files like that?? They told her that, at the rate it's spreading and growing, she's got a few months left, but most likely won't live to see spring. My heart is breaking and it seems Samira knows too...she hasn't been her usual self and keeps snuggling grandma, kissing her, hugging her, saying "love you"....
