Hi and welcome to the Community but so sorry to hear about your mother in law and the challenges your are all facing.
I totally get the shock, not that I lots someone this way but in 2014 then 2015 I went through two Stem Cell Transplants for my rare type of Lymphoma.... the SCTs did the job but the second SCT did it’s best to kill me off.... this is unfortunately the nature of some blood cancer and it’s treatment.
Talking to people face to face can indeed could help a lot but during these times it’s not that available but do check to see if you have any Local Macmillan Support in your area or a Maggie’s Centre as these folks are amazing and a lot of these services have moved onto online video support but face to face support is opening up again.
It’s always good to talk and the Macmillan Support Services provides lots of support, information or just a listening ear and they may be able to recommend any support for your wife.
Most services are open 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week and it's free to call on 0808 808 00 00 have a look by Clicking here to see what is available and we also have our Ask an Expert section, but do allow two working days for replies from our expert team.
The Community is organised into support groups and we do have our supportive Bereaved family and friends group, this will be a good place to connect with families navigating the same type of journey.
To join a group just click on the link above then choose 'click to join' or 'join' (depending on the device you're using) on the page that opens.
You can then introduce yourself by putting up a ‘New Thread’ or hit the box with the X on the top right (phones), you could just copy and paste the text from this your first post. You can also join in with existing ‘Discussions’ by clicking on 'reply'.
All the very best.
