Hi conoholic,
I have read all your posts and if I am correct you are still a teenager? If so, I doubly feel for you. I faced the same cancer in my mother.

The short answer to your question is that nobody really knows. However, often it is not very long. Ask your mother’s doctor because it can be different from one person to another. Your mother’s doctor will be better able to advise you.

My thoughts and my prayers are with you.
