Secondary breast cancer

hi im Indonesian, resides in UK. I'm currently being my aunt carer since she has this secondary breast cancer. She has her lymph nodes taken out so her right arm suffers of lymphoedema and she unable to move her arm at all. The tumours are visible under her arm and it makes the fluid can't be drainaged well. The tumours can't be removed due it is too risky. Her mood has been ups and downs and I have no idea how to deal with this. I really need to see her get better...
