Plans for the future

Firstly, ask your mum how she sees things and what she really wants! As a person with a tumour diagnosed 8 months ago, all I want for now is everything to carry on as normally as possible as long as possible and thats whats happening. My husband continues to work full time as do I. We travel, ski and ice skate. My condition isnt widely known, its very much on a need to know basis. If I deteriorate things may have to change but for now all is good.

Thank you.

I hope you are doing well. Im sure we will take each day as it comes and make the most of the time together.

Hi Zeushera

a warm welcome to the group. So sorry to hear about your mum's diagnosis.

I supported my late husband through the 3 years of his Glioblastoma journey. I'd echo what Tashie said - be led by what your mum wants to do with the time she has. 

My late husband was adamant that things for myself and our kids continued as normal as possible. He wouldn't entertain us taking time off work unless it was annual leave. He focused a huge amount of his energy on his running (he was a marathon runner) but he also enjoyed spending time with his friends and doing a bit of travelling. 

Planning a few trips/outings sounds good. My daughter went skiing with her dad to France for a week. I spent 5 days with him in Paris a few months later but to be honest it was exceedingly stressful as he didn't cope well out of his own environment. Its really a case of playing it by ear.

love n hugs
