Thanks for the response. I'm sending it on to Jane's daughter so she can decide about Jane reading it. Jane does have a daughtre who lives nearby (single working mom), but no partner. She's very concerned about maybe not being able to live alone or being able to drive. Right now she's thinking she doesn't want to undergo any type of treatment, but I'm hoping that when she's seen by cancer specialists she will at least entertain the thought of treatment. If she reads some of this blog, maybe she'll change her mind....

I hope she changes her mind! It’s sad to just ‘throw in the towel’ without even trying. It’s way too soon to make that type of decision without having seen an oncologist. She has a daughter and friends who would miss her terribly and it’s certainly not worth giving up this early in the game.
You’re a wonderful friend and Jane’s very lucky to have you in her corner. Maybe between you and her daughter you’ll have some positive impact. 🙂
Keep me posted, ok?
