Overwhelmed

 

My beautiful mum has advanced cancer in her liver and peritoneum. She's had 2 asitic drains and is currently in hospital with the 2nd.

I'm terrified,I feel like she's slowly deteriorating and I honestly can't believe this is happening. I have incredible family and friends but feel so alone. 

I get angry, sad, and then just feel numb and like I can't deal with anyone or anything. 

Such a cruel, cruel disease. 

Love to all going through cancer hell xxx

  • I feel 4 u hunni my nephew going through same he is 12. My sister is dying of liver cancer aged 40. My poor nephew lost his sister a few years ago and now hus mum won't be here much longer. Awful nasty disease here if u need chat sending a hug 

  • Sadly the statistics tell us you are not alone. My father-in-law has just been diagnosed with liver cancer, it is inoperable and chemo isn't an option for him because of his general health, he is 88. Myself and my partner will be his carers until such a time as he requires more than we can provide. I am terrified of getting it wrong and spoiling our relationship in the last stages of his life.

    I truly wish he could just go to sleep and not wake up before his suffering really starts. Is that selfish?

    Big hug for you and your mum. X
