Our beloved relative is so unwell with a pelvic mass at 89.
No treatment can be given & the last few days have been a struggle, not knowing what to do. Speech is now very hard, legs leaking, sickness and very little eating.
I am so sorry to hear of your relative's situation, this must be very hard to see and difficult for you and your family.
You haven't asked a question and I am unsure how we can best help you.
If you would like to talk things through with one of our nurses on the helpline you would be welcome to call us. The freephone number to call is 0808 800 4040 and we are available between 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday.
I don't know if your relative is in hospital or if they are at home, but I hope support is being put in place for them, for example, if they have apalliative care / Macmillan nurse. They are expert at managing symptoms and provide emotional support. This is something the hospital or the GP can arrange.
On our website, we have information aboutsupport at homewhich might be useful if this is where your relative is being cared for.
I appreciate this is difficult to read but we do have information aboutdying with cancerwhich may help
Please get back to us if need any information or support,
