Hello, new here. My mum has diagnosed with Anal Squamous cell carcinoma and metacised to her liver. We have her appointment to find out when treatment starts on Thursday. Can anyone let me know the basics of looking after Mum, Do's and Don'ts or any other advice. Just want to help and make it as easy as possible for her whilst still dealing with the shock.
Thank you in advance.
