Cancer in My Chart for MIL [View all]

So with all the new technology and data, mostly it makes things easier. My mother in law had some chest pain and went in for tests, they found spots in her lungs. Results come back in her MyChart yesterday morning, on Easter. It's cancer, metastasized to lymph nodes and possibly bones. The pain ended up being a broken rib that they think had a lesion on it where it broke. But whoa, this is some heaving news to get via MyChart. You'd think this is the type of thing they'd want to hold off sending you a message about and instead get you in to tell you in person.

Anyway, wife is really going through it, her and her mom could not be closer. This absolutely sucks, an amazing person that I am close to too. Seems like she's dealing with stage 3 or stage 4.
