Hello,
Does anyone have any experience of what I should expect my dear mum to go through in the latter stages of kidney cancer? I have no real clue of what I should expect.
Although she is "comfortable" the pain seems to flair up regularly and getting swift and appropriate pain relief is proving difficult in her nursing home.
GP's are overstretched and hard to come by and the palliative care team seem to want to defer to the GPs. It's very harrowing to witness and makes you despair when you can do little to help but keep begging for more pain relief from staff who are unwilling/unauthorised to give it.
Thank you for your time.
