I dunno, maybe shes thinking its better to give him a good few months before he goes than more months of surgery and such which might not even work.

I'm not sure if I would think that way about my child, but I know for sure if I had a terminal illness and treatment was making me/was likely to make me ill I would rather take my chances and live whats left of my life to the fullest, than be hooked up to machines and such that might make no difference anyway, and ultimately die in a hospital bed.
