Yeah. Doctors told her not to bother with chemo. She'd be torturing herself for no reason. Focus on getting her affairs in order and spending time with her family. She said to heck with that and wanted to fight on anyway, and ended up seeing both of her kids graduate from college and get married. She ended up burying her husband instead of the other way around.

When she finally went to the hospital for the last time, about ten years after that, she still wanted to fight. Can't win all the time, though.
