supporting my mum

Hi Cpop,

I am sorry you have to go through this, my heart goes out to you!

I have gone through something similar and one thing that was really helpful was to take it one day at a time. When I would feel myself getting worked up about the future, I would think about my mum, that she’s still here now, and I would feel somewhat comforted. You also cannot know how she’ll respond to treatment, it could go very well, so who knows what the future holds. I read some people here that have lived with cancer for many years, I’ve also met a few.

I think you’re already doing the most important thing - you’re there for her. It’s immensely comforting that she’s not alone, and not just that, she has her child close.

Please reach out if you feel that it’d help.
