i'm glad that she got to see her son before she died...

and thankfully she never knew he was locked up - he even shuffled into her room with ankle shackles on, to say goodbye :(

REALLY?? Oh, this story is SO sad!! I knew she had issues with Cancer but I wasn't aware that she was getting worse or any other detail about her.

That is sad!

Did she try treatment for it? I guess it didn't work?

Farrah documented her battle with cancer the last 2-3 years, from when she first got the news at the doctors thru the treatments she experimented with. For a fleeting moment, it looked like she beat it into remission, but alas, it came back. The chemo and radiation did not help cause they destroyed her blood vessels. Her second round of treatment was the full dose of chemo and radiation. It's pretty bad when they can't find a stable vein to stick the iv needle.

Personally, I feel the treatment killed her healthy cells ability to fight the cancer, and that's why it came back. Would I have gone another round of painful treatment if it was me, I probably wouldn't.
