My mum was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer at the beginning of February. I live with her, my dad and my brother. I do everything I can for my mum especially now we’re in this lockdown; I’ve cut down hours at work, even had to change my area of work (as a nurse) to make her less at risk of covid but meaning I’m not around my work friends. My brother tends to just stay in his room all the time and my dad just acts as if there’s nothing going wrong in the world. All my friends are doing their own things and I just feel completely alone in this world. I’m only in my 20s and feel absolutely devastated that I’m going to lose my mum/best friend and when she’s gone I’m going to be utterly lost. I’m spending every day crying but trying to hide it from her and just don’t know where to turn. I don’t really know why I’m looking for here whether it’s support or an outlet I don’t know.
