Some of you may have read in the "This instant and moment" thread that my mum was going into hospital to get a fiber optic camera down her throat, as she suspected she may have cancer from the pain in her throat and the severe vomiting with also dramatic weight loss through out the past month. A few hours ago my sister phoned me from the hospital and gave me the most hard hitting news I've ever had! The doctors had found a tumor in my mums larynx :(. On a more positive note it has been caught early, she will have to undergo another fiber optic camera down her throat again and a cat scan to make 100% sure it hasn't spread. If any of you are near your mother right now or near a phone tell your mum you love them because you never know!
 
I can semi-understand the camera down the throat, i had one shuffed up my nose, felt like it was in my brain.

Best wishes mate.
 
Oh no! Really sorry to heat about it. I hope it hasn't spread and that it can be removed.
 
Good she went to them swiftly, good they spotted it, and glad it is at an early stage, hopefully things will continue in a fortunate manner for a full resolution. Best wishes.
 
Worrying news to be sure! I hope your mum makes a full recovery.

You'd have heard the echo as it bounced around the inside of your skull! ;)
 
I'm sorry to hear this, Tank. I wish your mum all the best, and I hope she makes a full recovery.
 
Aye it's horrible, i remember my mum telling me she had cancer, worst thing ive ever felt, thankfully she pulled through so chin up fella, they caught it early so best wishes to her and you!.
 
Time to be strong in your heart and in your mind fella. All the best to your family through this hard time.
