Hello, my 1 year old daughter has recently started this awful journey of treatment for bilateral (stage 5) Wilms  tumor. She’s having 12 weeks of chemo to shrink the growths then she’ll have nephron- sparing surgery. I’m so stressed and overwhelmed! She’s so tiny and clueless.  Are there any other parents on here for those with Wilms? 

  • That’s such a tough situation. You must be so worried.
     I hope you find people who can support you with this. x

  • Hi Hsw202

    I'm sorry to read about your daughter, and I hope the chemo is successful!

    You will probably get more responses if you post your question in a different group. I think there is a forum specially for parents/carers of young people with cancer.

    If you cannot find a suitable forum, try phoning the helpline, and they may be able to advise.

    I hope you can connect with others who are in a similar situation.
