Mum - cancer was worse than originally thought.

How's your Mum doing Luciee?

Hiya, just wondering how things are? x

Hello sorry for the late reply! .. she's doing well in herself at the moment they said they are going to carry on feeding her through the tube untill after chemo so she's strong and fit enough, but no other news, she's hopefully coming home Thursday. 

How are you? Aby news about your dad?x

Not as yet, waiting on the scan results so keeping everything crossed atm.

Have you managed to have more of a chat with her? What chemo will she be on?

x

They haven't said anything yet as they have been focusing on getting her back on her feet, her surgery was in a different hospital to the one she will be having chemo, so she still needs to have an appointment with them, it won't start untill March so I'm unsure of when she will meet them either to go over things.

She did speak with the specialist and she said that lymphnode are usually very responsive to chemo treatment and she thinks the treatment will be more aggressive as it is had spread to the lymphs and could have travled.

I'm keeping everything crossed for the scan results, hope your holding up as well as possible, keep me updated x

hi lovely, how's things?? x

Morning, things are slow burning at the moment, shes home from hospital so its nice to be able to see her, mum has an appointment with the oncologist next week so we will know a bit more of what's going to happen, how are you? Xx

Just checking in onelove, I hope things are OK xx

Hi, that's very kind thank you.

Well, am very frustrated today if I'm honest - it was Dads long awaited latest scan results appt today, however this was cancelled as the results hadn't been read or reported on! Annoyed doesn't really cover it- I know there are issues with staff shortages thanks to blasted covid, but cancer patients really do need to be priority and I feel very let down and upset today, after weeks of waiting and gearing up.

Dad is brushing it off, oh well these things happen!- well, the truth is they shouldn't and its unfair.

Mum and I have been going out of our minds, esp as at the start of last week, Dad was really quite unwell. 

But, I can't do anything so the agonising wait continues until we hear more....

How are things with you, any further forward now?? x

Oh I'm sorry to hear that, I completely understand your frustrations and upset, the wait between feels so long and worrying, I hope they dont keep you and your family waiting much longer.

It's such a frightening time and the unknown makes things worse. It is so unfair. I hope your holding up OK.

Thinking of you x
