Good morning, my husband has been diagnosed with Neuroendocrine Tumours. His primary sight is his left kidney whioch we understand to believe extremely rare. Last week we were told that they have spread to his bones, (Spine, Hips, Pelvis and Skull) and in his liver. We understand this to be a non curable cancer. We feel very alone in this and to do not know where to start with any organisation of our lives. We have two daughters 24 and 20.
Any advise would be most welcome.

Good morning Angela.
There is a Neuroendocrine Tumour group on this site. You are welcome to read my Profile, click on my user name Mitzie10, top right of page.
NETs are complex and need a Specialist Team to advise. The best resource is netpatientfoundation.org
The main question is....where is your husband being treated?
