Really new to this sort of thing and struggling to find something positive.
My Mams in the process of being diagnosed with either kidney or stomach cancer after developing ascites suddenly a few weeks ago. There’s been no formal diagnosis but she’s been told that she probably won’t make it to treatment which has come as a bit of a shock. Despite her being in hospital she’s still her usual self.
Is there any helpful steps I should take to get through it? I’ve not cried or got upset you but I’m getting very impatient and frustrated with things that wouldn’t usually affect me.
Hi Rob_d and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I’m really sorry to read that your mum isn't able to have treatment and I can understand what a shock this must have been to hear.
The online community is divided into different support groups so I'm going to recommend that you join the supporting someone with incurable cancer group as you'll then connect directly with others in a similar situation as yourself.
To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
