My Momma

Just a little slideshow I made for my mom, Beth Stokes. She was diagnosed with Glioblastoma Multiforme, the most agressive form of brain cancer, May 15, 2009. I lost her July 28, 2009.

Oh my dear! You lost your mom in two months? :( My mom was diagnosed in August 2009 and now is in the end stage and there is no treatment left.. She has about several weeks to couple of months. How did your mom pass away so quickly?

@kliikd My mom didn't like hospitals or doctors and while she knew something was not right, she didn't go to the doc to have her symptoms investigated until it was waaaay too late for treatment. By the time she got there, she had already lost 90% mobility on her left side, so any life prolonging treatment would have had her laying in a hospital bed for longer than necessary. Mom would have had no quality of life. We chose (her and I) to keep her comfortable. Love and light to you and your mom <3

There's nothing you can do but give her whatever she asks for and love her with everything you have. I'm sorry you have to live through this, it's not easy. My sympathies for you as well.

I lost my mother from the very same cancer in 1989. She was 53. It's a horrible thing to see any loved one to go through.  My sympathies to you and your family.......
