Welcome to Cancer Chat Ginalove72 although I'm so sorry to hear about your cousin.
I can't begin to imagine what you and your cousin's family must be going through right now but I hope you can take some strength, and comfort, from knowing that our community are here for you and hopefully some of our members who have been in this position will be along soon to offer their support and advice.
I hope this guidance we have on supporting children when someone is dying will help but if you'd like to speak to one of our cancer nurses about this, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.
You may also be able to get further information and advice from Marie Curie.
Our thoughts are with you at this very difficult time Ginalove72.
Kind regards,
Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
