Hello all. Just looking for some support. My mum had breast cancer last year and this morning has been told that it’s back in her liver, pelvis and glands. It’s incurable and she has 2-10 years left, depending on how she responds to treatment. I’m only 17, I want my mum to see me grow up. I want her to see me have children. I want her to see me become a doctor. I have anorexia, and have been stuck in a relapse which makes everything even harder - I want my mum to see me recovered, happy and healthy. I feel so lost and so sad.

    Hi Eleanor,I am sorry regarding the news about your mum.I am not very good with words but just want to share my so far positive story.I am sure some people maybe will give you better support.I am 42 I was diagnosed in May 2019 with stage 4 breast cancer spread in my lungs,kidney and liver.Since end of August I am on weekly chemotherapy to which I am responding well I have no visible tumors in my kidney nor in liver and lung noduls keep shrinking.So it will 1 year since diagnosis and I feel stronger and stronger.There is many treatment choices even immunotherapy so try to stay positive.My mum she is positive when I start crying from time to time she tells me off.I refused the immunotherapy trial because i would have to have more tests and longer wait I just wanted to have treatment ASAP.I also have min.side effects from chemo.

    Anyway you will find here a very good people and friends and help and advice.

    Take care
