A very warm welcome to the Cancer Chat community Sally although I'm so sorry to hear about your mum. She's been through so much and I can't begin to imagine how you must have felt when the care company's assessment came through. 

Thankfully, we have some information about the different types of support that is available at home for you and your mum but if you'd like to discuss any of this further with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m -5p.m. They're very informative and will do all they can to help.

So many of our members know how challenging being a carer can be, so you are not alone, and hopefully you will receive some support and advice from them soon.

I hope this information we have for carers will prove useful as well.

We're thinking of you Sally and will have our fingers crossed you're able to get the care your mum needs that will benefit you both at this time. 

Kind regards,

Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
