Hello, I'm new to this.
My Mum is my very best friend and she was diagnosed with stage four cancer just before Christmas, she also has a brain tumor which we have managed for the past few years. I have cared for my Mum through all of this which has been a journey in itself (we don't live together) - but I am now struggling massively with this new additional diagnosis. Pain management is the medical way forward for my Mum - its so hard for me to know that she is so ill and the prognosis is not favorable. I am in such deep emotional pain all of the time, I constantly have a deep deep pain in my heart, I cry a lot. I want to find a way to help myself through this painful unstoppable journey, I have supportive friends who are very good, I don't have any other family. I took some time off work recently and have just returned. I must continue on this journey of assisting my Mum but I need help to find ways to manage my own deep emotional pain, the future looks very bleak to me right now. I would appreciate tips suggestions from the community please......
