Hiya everyone, I'm AuntieTJ82 and I'm new here.

I found out a couple of weeks ago that my eldest cousin on my mum's side of my family has been diagnosed with kidney cancer which has spread to his spine.

He's only 45 (he's just over 2 years older than me). He's a dad and grandad.

My cousin's mum is my mum's twin sister.

He's currently in a cancer centre having treatment.

My mum has gone to visit him. 

My cousin told my mum that the visiting hours are from 10am to 8pm but they are very flexible with the times as my cousin's mum had got lost when she first went to visit him and she didn't get to him until 9.30pm, but the staff allowed my auntie to still see my cousin. My cousin also told my mum that the 8pm visit end is for visitors who are being noisy and loud.
