Hi My mother has stage four lung cancer,  she’s 86 and I’m trying to get her out of hospital- this is really hard- I feel like wherever I turn for help  l can’t do that, you need this referral for that you need that assessment if you want this….  Im just needing a bit of strength and encouragement.  I thought I might find that here Heart

  • Hello Cat, so sorry to hear of your mother's diagnosis.  Why do you want to 'get her out of hospital'?  Are you not happy with her treatment?  Do you not feel that you are being kept informed with what is happening?  You don't mention if your mum is having chemo or radiotherapy at all.  I'm sure you have a Multi Disciplinary Team [MDT] working with you and your mum - make sure you use their expertise and advice. They will be the ones to turn to and to answer your questions.  Wishing you and your mum lots of love and hugs.

  • Hello Cat, how are things going now?  I do hope you are managing to handle all the distress you must be feeling.  Wishing you and your mother lots of love and hugs.
