I joined this community just over 2 years ago when my Mom was diagnosed with lung cancer... My mom passed away on the 13th April 2017, a mere 6 weeks after diagnosis.
Coming on here during and after I found to be of great help, along with another recommendation I got from here for the Loss Foundation.
Anyhoooo, I'm going through a whole variety of emotions right now as on the 29th March 2019 I heard the same fateful words being uttered from another consultants mouth, this time for my step-dad, he's been my dad for 31 years and I love him to bits.
We don't have the full details yet, awaiting an appointment for a pet scan and biopsy. I hate waiting...
Time to sign back onto here I thought as quite frankly I feel that I'm about to completely lose my shizzle.
