My mum has rectal cancer stage 4 she's 74 they are treating her with chemotherapy and radiotherapy and hopefully am op to remove. How do people cope? I'm so frightened
Hi Clairelife, I’m so sorry you are going through this too. My mum is due for a part lung removal for lung cancer next week. It’s scary but I’m just taking one day at a time. I lost my Dad to cancer 6 years ago, the biggest thing for me was leaving nothing unsaid and having no regrets knowing he felt loved and cherished, we also did his bucket list. Mums diagnosis was a real shock, I think I’m in denial as the fear is manifesting itself in my dreams.
Thank you for your reply it feels like a dream at the moment.. I'm just praying she gets through this xx hope your mum gets through too I can't imagine being with out her and I know you must be feeling the same. Heart broken. But they will get through this that's what I believe everyday. I try not to cry in front of her and tell her every day " don't worry we got this" it's so hard xx
