Grandma has large tumour in stomach

We found out about 3 weeks ago that my grandma is inn advanced stages of stomach cancer which explains all the symptoms and drastic weight loss she has experienced. She is currently staying in hospital and cannot be treated, she is soon going home with a care plan in place. Yesterday my uncle and aunty had a baby and my grandma went to see the baby and held it for the first time today, the first time shes been happy in weeks. To think she wont be here to see her new grand daughter grow up is really sad. Its really hard to cope with loosing her and seeing her as weak and sad as she is, i remember when she would pick me up from school and always buy me whatever she could just to see my happy even though she struggled with not enough money. Music had helped me a lot.  How do other people cope with loosing a loved one?

  • Hello

    my fella whose 43 has advanced stomach cancer, diagnosed in march 2017 after many months of scans and dramatic weight loss. It's inoperable, and on palliative chemo. He's currently on his 2nd cycle of EOX treatment and tolerating this well.

    we have two boys aged 9 & 8 yr old, so it's very hard to come to terms with. Take each day as it comes is all I can suggest
