Well after being told by someone on Tuesday ( who by the way needs to be strike of ) that they couldn't do anything for my mum. That chemo wasn't an option. We have had the worst 2 years.... did I really say 2 years I meant 2 days although it feels like years of our lives. My family have just gone through hell only to be told by someone different they are doing chemo although it wont shrink it it will contain it.. To say I am confused is an understatement. We seem to be getting conflicting stories depending on who you talk to.... Any way to cut a long story short we have now been told that when mum see's the oncologist they want the whole family there all 5 kids and her husband. My stepdad is really struggling with the news, and is now getting himself into even more of a state because he thinks if we all have to be there it can only be the worst news possible. My sister has told him it is because if we are all there, any questions one forgets the other will remember likewise with the information they give us.
I am so worried about him, in a weird way more so than my mum. She true to form has taken the news very well. He has fallen apart, shut himself away. I love him as if he were my real dad and have a very close relationship with him, but at the moment seem to be at a loss as to what to say to him...
Any ideas as to why they would want us all there please.
Before I go I would just like to share this with you it made me laugh so much. When I spoke to mum yesterday and asked her how she was feeling, she said I am fine just got to accept and take whatever is coming nothing else I can do. Anyway Julie I am not going anyway yet I am to young to die and I haven't planned for it. You know me if I haven't planned for it it aint happening......... Boy that made me laugh typical mum and that attitude is what will help her through this.....
