Well now on the adult female's stomach
in a big patch under 2-3 nipples there is a
hard lump there that is painful to her to
the touch. This has just developed in the
last few days. Any suggestions of 1: how
to get the kitten to stop nursing and 2:
should I worry about the lump or just get
the kitten to quit nursing and it'll take care
of itself?

Unspayed cats are at a high risk of developing mammary cancer, and the
risk increases with every heat. This may be what's happining and was
coincidental with the kitten nursing. You should take this cat to a vet
ASAP for a diagnosis, and get her spayed as well. Your kitten can be
spayed as early as 8 weeks, and should be done no later than 4 months so
you don't risk her going into heat and getting pregnant, or developing
mammary cancer or pyometra later in life.

"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one
elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and
splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then
providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and
material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his
way."
