Hello, It sounds like your mum is being well looked after and receiving some very intensive treatment, which will be hard, not just on your mum, but will hopefully get easier over time. I had cancer in my hip and femur. It was well advanced and meant that I needed a very intensive chemo, 14 rounds, and a full hip and femur replacement. The first one wiped me out and it was all a blur until after number 4 when I was scanned etc to see how the chemo was helping and if the course should be continued. This was back in 1997, so it really was quite some time ago but the treatment did get easier. Your mum will be reviewed when the treatments had time to work. What your mum needs now is for you to be really positive because she's working so hard to turn up for treatment that she knows will make her feel awful. Try to think of small things that will cheer those days up. Breakfast somewhere nice on the way to hospital visits, or if she has a hobby, something to do when she's sitting around? Audio books if she likes reading, this means when she's too tired, she can still enjoy her favourite stories. Try to enjoy things together, like a funny film.. even an old favourite. Laughing together will be good for both of you. Don't hide your feelings, share them with your mum but find ways to make yourself feel positive and share that feeling with your mum so she's encouraged. The treatment plan sounds really promising, so smile for the chance that's there and be reassured that you'll soon have some much needed answers. Xxx
