Welcome to the forum Betty although I'm sorry to hear about your mum's diagnosis and for the reason it brings you here. 

There are a quite a few members on the forum in this position who will understand how tough this can be and hopefully some of them will post soon to share their advice and experiences with you. You can also look for previous discussions that may be similar to yours by entering keywords in to the 'search forum' option above.

I know you mentioned being in touch with carers but I have had a look on our website and found some general information about getting help at home which may help as well. If you would like to have a read just click here. Also, if you have any questions about this or would like to finding out about other types of help that may be available to you do give our cancer nurses a call. They are available Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

Stay strong Bettty and remember that we are here for you if you need us.

Best wishes, 

Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
