Hey so I’m new here and basically my mum is the one with the dreaded breast C and I was just looking for support really. I’m not entirely sure how to go about it if I’m honest.
Hi Breastcancerhelp
Welcome to the online community and I am sorry to hear that your mother has breast cancer. We have a dedicated breast cancer forum which you can join to get support from others in your Mum's situation. Here's the link: Breast cancer forum. There is also a Family and Friends Forum where you can also get support and a Carer's Forum if you are your mother's carer. Here the links to those two forums as well: Family and friends forum , Carers only forum .
Breast cancer is very treatable these days particularly when it's found early. Your mother's medical team will do everything in their power to make sure your mother comes out of the other side of this. She can also join the breast cancer forum if she wishes.
If you are thinking of going to Doctor Google to research your mother's type of breast cancer, don't as the information on google is out of date by years, rely on sites like this one and Breast Cancer Now for your information.
Wishing you and your mother the best of luck with whatever comes next.
Best wishes
