Small Cell Cervical Cancer

On Tuesday I found out that my mum has a very rare form of cancer and doesn't really have anything specific to cure it. she will be living with this for the rest of her life and i can't even imagine what she would look like in a few months time, it scares me that much. I am only 16 and don't have a clue on where to start with handling it all, all f my family and friends are telling me how i need to be strong for my mum and my family at home. However it is all starting to get on top of me now and I have actually started crying myself to sleep i just want to cry that much. I feel like I am on my own right now and odn't have anyone to turn to other than my boyfriend but he doesn't say much about it (but i don't blame him), he doesn't know what to say.i just wish that there were more people out there that knew about this cancer and tat there was a way to cure it :cry: we don't know how long she has left but i hope it is a very long time as i want her to see me eventually get married, have children and finally get the job of my dreams and to just simply succeed in life!

  • Welcome to the forum chanty1998,

    You have come to the right place for support and you will always find a shoulder to cry on here. Sometimes it is difficult to talk to the ones that are closest to us about this, but people on this forum will know exactly what it is like to look after and support a loved one with cancer.

    I will let them come and say hello to you now and share their story so that you feel less alone. You can come here anytime. Rather than crying yourself to sleep, you can always count on someone to talk to you here, even late at night or in the early hours of the morning.

    Best wishes,
