Hi Sammy79, 

I'm sorry to hear your mum has been diagnosed with terminal oesophageal cancer which has spread to her right lung, lymph nodes and spine and I can understand why you may be worried about how to break the news to your children. I'm not sure how old they are and how much they know already but I think their age will help you work out what to say to them. Many members have been in the same situation with their children and I'm sure they will be along soon to offer their support and advice.

Do come back and let us know what the biopsy results are. We'll have our fingers crossed for the best news you can receive in this situation.

All the best,
