tonado Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 My mom is at peace now. Suffering for a year with oral cancer. Very nasty. She had 6 surgeries, radiation, and chemo. Nothing works. She didn't smoke or drink alcohol. She didn't like dentists which might be the cause of her death. If caught early, it might have save her. Moral of the story: Dental care is very important. And most Chinese people don't think like that. Make sure you persuade your love one to take care of the teeth. Link to comment
Dennis143 Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 So sorry to read of your loss, Tony. Hers and her family's suffering are over now. There is no other who will ever love us like our mothers. A sad loss, my condolences. Dennis Link to comment
amberjack1234 Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I to am very sorry to hear this sad news. Oral cancer is bad indeed. My grandfather died of it. My wife died of it as well. There is no good cancer for sure. Best wishes to you TonyLarry Link to comment

tonado Posted April 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 Thanks everyone. Yesterday my dad and I met with a Chinese Funeral Director (from a Chinese Funeral Home) in Boston. Rather than going with an American Funeral Home, my dad wants a Chinese style one (a simple one - no offering or incense), The arrangement is all set (funeral will be Friday). These few days, we are gathering stuffs (to be buried in the casket) for my mom. My dad told me one family member gave her deceased mom a Mah Jong (because she loved that tile game). Yesterday we bought some new clothes for my mom. I plan to give my mom her favorite Chinese music CDs and Chinese Drama DVDs. Finally got some sleep yesterday. I am sad but relieved that my mom's suffering is over. Instead of buying flowers for my mom, I told my family members (cousins) to donate to the American Cancer Society. Thanks again. Link to comment
