Hello my mum was diagnosed with lung cancer which spread to her brain and kidneys was given six months to live in February this year. Mum is still with us at the moment. Joined this group for a bit 
support at this extremely difficult time
Hi and welcome to the Online Community but so sorry to hear about your mum’s diagnosis, this must be a hard time for all the family.
A cancer diagnosis like this in the family can be very challenging but talking with others who are walking the same type of cancer support journey will help you navigate this difficult time.
The Community has many support groups snd I see you have joined a few but when it comes to the practical challenges of supporting someone you may benefit from talking with others caring for family and friends so do check out our Carers only and Supporting someone with incurable cancer groups where you will connect with others supporting family and friends
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'.
It’s always good to talk so do call the Macmillan Support Services on 0808 808 00 00 - most services are open 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week Clicking here to see what is available. This service provides lots of cancer information, support, financial guidance or just a listening ear.
We also have Cancer Nurse Team in our Ask an Expert section, but do allow two working days for replies from our expert team.
All the very best ((hugs))
