Hi everyone,

My mum was diagnosed with incurable cancer on Christmas Eve. They said she had up to a year to live. On Sunday they said she’s so I’ll she only has weeks left.

she’s only 49. I have 2 younger sisters who I’m trying so hard to be their rock but I don’t know to cope. I can’t see life without my mum she’s our everything.

I have so many emotions and questions flooding my brain and no clue how to calm it. I’m struggling at work because it’s all I can think about.

I don’t even know what it is I’m asking from this post. I guess just to see if people have or do feel similarly?

Thank you x

Hello Kay104,

I am sorry to read your sad news, such a young age.

There is a forum for people caring for people with incurable cancer, it might be a good idea to join that group also.

It is so hard to be the rock, you are human, don`t forget to think about you while you think about your sisters.

Does your manager know the situation you are in? he or she may be able to help you at this tough time.

Have you considered the macmillan line? you will get help and support from the experts.

Try and enjoy the time you have left as a family, every second.

I hope this helps.

I feel your pain.

John.
