Hi,
Reaching out as just feel completely lost. Mum was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer in May, spread to bones and also two brain tumours. Mum passed away this month and I can't process anything, just feel angry and lost. Advice appreciated
Hi R2023 I am so sorry you have lost your mum to this awful disease. I think it is natural to be feeling angry at the moment. Have you thought about bereavement counselling? There is online support available at Sue Ryder -online-bereavement-support
There is also another group here on the Macmillan online community that you may want to join. bereaved-family-and-friends-forum is a group where you will find other members who have also lost loved ones to cancer. Sharing your experience with other people who are going through a similar situation to you can really help the grief process.
I know when I lost my mum, it was a very challenging time. There is no right or wrong way to grieve, and everyone grieves in their own way. Just take one day at a time. Sending you a gentle hug x
