My aunt is back home in Ipoh after she discharged herself from University Hospital on her own accord. Her husband and son drove her home and we went over to their house to meet them and help them out.
According to my uncle, my aunt has been diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer and the doctor told him that she only has a few months to live. My aunt, unfortunately, has lost the will to live, from what we observed. It's understandable. She must be in terrible pain.
My aunt's first chemotherapy session will be on 14th July, a long way off, and even so, the doctor has only prescribed her with 50% of normal dosage. This is not a cure but only a way to prevent cancer from spreading further and to bring her comfort.
The doctor has told my uncle, her husband, to make my aunt as comfortable as possible these coming months. Of course we are all trying to do our best and to cope as best we could in our own ways but still, even though we are trying to come to terms with reality, it is extremely depressing.
If you are reading this, I hope you will keep my Aunt Julie in your prayers.
