[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. Sorry to know that your mother is having cancer in lungs which has spread to liver. This is stage 4 cancer lungs and is difficult to treat. Patients are put on aggressive chemotherapy for controlling cancer spread and to give them an extended survival. With recommended treatment and good supportive care patients might survive for 2 years. Beyond that survival is difficult because the disease progress is faster. Pain relief is important for your mother, and she should be given enough pain reliever to make her comfortable. Please discuss this with her doctors and try and provide adequate pain relief. Please do not worry.
