My elderly cousin has been diagnosed with cancer pancreas stomach and liver. She is 90. She had a Ct scan 9 days ago and got the outline of the Cancer from GP. She became unwell on the following Wednesday I took her to GP who found low BP anemia and dehydration. My cousin Gillian was supposed to meet with GI specialist last Friday but clinic was cancelled. 

Gillian was medically discharged on Friday but because she lives alone she she had to stay at the hospital until we get a prognosis from Consultant this Wednesday before she decides to go home or into a home.

Gillian is now in an elderly persons ward  She is very miserable waiting to hear news from Consultant on Wednesday. 

Because of the bank holiday no one is able to help her except family. But she could do with more support and preparation for the time ahead.
