I lost my Mam recently to small cell lung cancer that had met to brain & bones, I'm really struggling coming to terms with her not being here anymore & the fact that it all happened so quickly ( 6 weeks from diagnosis) I feel so ANGRY and don't know how to chanel it. 

  • Its so hard, its like the world's carrying on and ours has stopped. I am just taking one day at a time, if i think too far ahead i get pannicky or crumble. Sending you a big hug xx

  • I lost my mum in Mid November 6 weeks after diagnosis to small cell lung cancer too! I’m new here and this is the first I’ve looked at this group so it’s weird that our situations are so similar. It’s so hard to deal with the last couple of months have been a blur I’ve found listening to podcasts about grief helpful one called good mourning in particular. We all grieve at our own pace so please be kind to yourself and remember that whatever you feel whether it’s angry/sad/shock that it’s all perfectly normal. A friend of mine told me recently that grieving is just another form of love I find that comforting. Sending love xx
