Hi all, I've joined as last week my mum got her diagnosis of advanced lung cancer with brain mets. Goodness knows what the next steps are but we're waiting to hear. What we do know is that surgery isn't possible so maybe it's about trying to have as much time with her as possible. Significant weight loss (2 stone) and she has always been small. As a cancer survivor I'm trying to stay strong but I'm scared of what is next
