  • Welcome to the forum Sal59, although I'm sorry to hear your mum has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been on this journey will be along soon to share their experiences and advice, but if you'd like to speak with one of our cancer nurses about this, they're available on 0808 800 4040. Their phone lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and they will do all they can to support you and answer any other questions you may have at this time.

    We're thinking of you Sal59 and wishing you and your mum all the best when you find out more about her diagnosis this week.

    Kind regards,
