My mum has recently been diagnosed with a brain tumour and is due to start radiotherapy on the 20th August for 6 weeks, 5 times a week. Is there anything she’s going to need before starting/anything that would be nice/helpful that I wouldn’t typically think of?
Any suggestions are gratefully received
Hi
I haven't had radiotherapy, so can't offer any personal experience, but I noticed you hadn't had any response to your question yet.
While you're waiting, if you haven't already tried this, you could type 'radiotherapy' into the search bar in this group and have a look at previous posts in the group which mention it.
I've also found this information from Macmillan on radiotherapy for brain tumours.
When you have a minute, it would be really useful if you could pop something about your mum's journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
