Thanks all for your responses so far. We're digesting what we've learned and my wife and I are in agreement that we're not going to prolong her life for our sake, as hard as that is. I think the x-rays on Thursday will be telling, if the cancer has spread, then there is no question about the right thing to do.
I can't see putting her through chemo or targeted radiation or even having the leg amputated. She is too big (156lbs) with a big deep chest to carry that weight on one leg, especially when she is already getting old by Saint standards.
We were prepared for the average of 10 years, but this came as a total shock given how healthy she's been.
