Hi Clairebear2010 welcome to the group, but sorry to hear about your mum. It is terrifying when a loved one is told they have cancer, and heart breaking when you know there is no cure.
There are a few people here in the lung group who are supporting their loved ones with lung cancer, but there are also other support forums on the community you can join.
