This question requires lots of thoughts and advise, so think before you answer....? O.K....here goes...Please, by all means, If you have a negative response, don't reply..My mother had x-rays done by our family doctor, because he thought she had phenomia..the x-rays showed dark spots on/in her lungs, with questionable results on her lymph nodes. I'M NOT AN IDIOT, however, is there a chance that maybe my mom is suffering from phenomia or bronchitis?...OR..could it be the inevitable? My mom is my ROCK...I'm so scared that it's the inevitable. Please be honest..I'm an adult, so whatever you advise or say will be taken as an adult. Please, be honest...even if you need to use family experiences as your examples. 

Thank you for your prayers, if you pray for us. :)

Summarized question: Does dark spots in the lungs is because of pneumonia or bronchitis?
