My mum discovered she had early stage breast cancer in February (pick up on a scan she had sor something totally unrelated). She went on to have a lumpectomy and 5days of radiotherapy. All clear or so we thought. She had a scan prior to the radiotherapy and something showed on her lung. She had various tests. Whilst waiting for the final biopsy my dad had an x ray and they said it was lung cancer, they following week mum had a diagnosis of the same thing. They have said hers is treatable and curable with surgery. We’re waiting on more tests for dad to determine what treatment, if any will be suitable for him. It’s all been such a shock. I am trying to stay up beat and positive for them both but sometimes it’s hard. I was due to go away with my husband and teenage children next week but I feel I can’t go incase there are appointments they need to attend.
