My mum passed unexpectedly on Tuesday. She had a radial cysectomy a year ago and unbeknown to me and my brother had SCC.
I don’t believe she realised how aggressive it was and neither her nor my dad showed us any letters and she seemed to think that it was gone.
her CT scan in March was clear and yet it seemed to completed overwhelm her between then and now.
I’m totally devastated and don’t know what to do
