Hi all, hope you are all well, i lost my Mum to Lung Cancer in 2020. I know its nearly 2 years now and things should be getting easier. But im really struggling. I didnt go to any support groups or anything when mum passed away, as being a man i thought i could cope and deal with it. My emotions and all sorts are all over the place just now, and im finally able to admit that im really struggling now. I dont know of any face to face group bereavement meetings or anything like that. Dont know if anyone has any ideas of how to find groups, thanks for reading, and take care everyone, Thanks, Jimbo
Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I'm really sorry to read that you lost your mum to lung cancer a couple of years ago and that you're really struggling.
As the online community is divided up into different support groups I'm going to recommend that you join and post in the bereaved family and friends group which is for anyone who has lost a family member or friend to cancer to share their feelings and support one another.
To join just click on the link I've created and then join and post in the same way as you did here. You can also join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help
