How sad JagMi! This disease is dangerous and we never know what will happen when we try treatment.
Warm regards

72 yo, dx 2006 MDS Interm-1. Accepted only supportive therapy until 2010 because I am afraid of the adverse effects of chemo. Now positive effect from Thalidomide.

Dear JagMi,
So sorry about your Mother. You just never know. It sounds like she didn't have any prolonged suffering. If so I hope that brings you a measure of comfort.
God Bless,
Sally
