Hi

just looking for any hope / support 

my mum has been stage 4 since Dec 24 and we have scan results tomorrow following the third line of treatment ( nothing working so far) and there may be one more line

but she also looks like she is fading away - she is tired / cold / thin and I just feel like we are losing this battle and I’m so scared - I love and need my mum so much and it just all seems so bleak

  • Annabelle,

    I’m so sorry to read what you and your mum are dealing with right now. I do hope that you have been given further information about another line now that you will hopefully have had the scan results. 

    I just wanted to let you know that I hear you and I’m so sorry that things seem so bleak right now.

    I wonder if you have been offered any further support to help you to manage this? My work offered some support services that I could phone and speak to if needed, so I wonder if there is anything like that to help to offer further support? There is the community here too, and MacMillan offer a support number too, if you needed it. 

    Sending you my very best wishes and support,

    Seraphina

  •   this is a horribly worrying time for you Cry but remember, you are a rock for your mum and she takes strength from your strength. What were the results of the scan? 

    Sending love and support x

  • The Lonsurf hasn’t worked - the consultant said it was very unusual for nothing to have worked - they are trying a 4th treatment - one tablet every day for 3 weeks then a week off - it’s hard to have any hope left
