new diagnosis

Hello dellyw77 ,

Thank you for reaching out on the Online Community, welcome to the forum. I'm Eliza from the Online Community team.

I'm very sorry for the loss of your sister and to hear your mum has been diagnosed with lung cancer. It sounds like you have had a lot to cope with. I hope you will find the Online Community to be a helpful source of support during this time.

Alongside the Online Community, please remember you can also find further help and support from Macmillan for you and your mum on Macmillan's Support Line. Our support team are available 7 days a week, 8am-8pm on freephone 0808 808 00 00, email or live webchat.  If you're calling from outside of the UK you can contact us on +44 207 091 2230. Our Support Line are here to chat and provide emotional support for you both, alongside practical support for your mum if she is based in the UK. 

If you would be interested in talking to other people about bereavement, we have a Bereaved family and friends forum which you may find helpful to join as well. 

If we can do anything further to help you find the right support for you or if you have any questions, please feel welcome to contact the Online Community team over email to community@macmillan.org.uk.

Best wishes and take care,
