How fast can the tumor grow?

Dear Her2 sisters,

I've been lurking mostly here for the last few years but have always followed and shared our journey.

My mom had her last mammography screening in January with no signs of any disease. Now after about 3 months she felt a lump in her other breast. The drs at our home country made an ultrasound and found something in her breast and a few lymphnodes on the side of her operated breast.

She has booked flight tickets to come to me to Europe and is coming in a week from today.

Can tumor grow this fast in 3 months? She doesn't want to listen to my urges to come earlier than a week, as we may have to wait for the surgery date as well, which also takes time. Time may be working against us. Does 1 week make a big difference?

Yours,
belle
