My girlfriend’s mum was diagnosed with lung cancer 3 years ago. Today, we found out that it has spread to her spine.
We don’t live together, and my girlfriend lives in the same house as her mum.
Our relationship hasn’t been too great over the last 6 months, but I’ve been trying my best to support her over the past 3 years. My partner is understandably very emotional right now, but she’s also very angry and frustrated, and directing a lot of that towards me.
I wondered if anyone else has experienced this kind of anger and frustration being directed at them? How did you deal with it? Do you have any advice on how I can best support her and her mum during this time?
