Diagnosed with sarcoma? Let's share

In June 2024, my mom who is now 66yo was diagnosed with Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma (DDLPS). Within a month she underwent a very invasive surgery to remove the large tumour along with her right kidney, large chunk of her liver and part of her diaphragm.
Fast forward 6 months, feeling a bit winded and weak still she just had her first post op routine CT scan and it has metastasized to her lungs and is stage 3/3.
Shocked is an understatement as how quickly it grew back to a new area of her body. Awaiting to hear from medical oncologist for treatment options for this aggressive very very rare cancer.
Looking into second opinion mayo clinic if there’s a chance.

@cassielee, I can only begin to imagine the shock. If you would like to inquire about a second opinion with Mayo experts, start here: http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63

What treatment options did her medical oncologist recommend?
