hi first time on here so hi. My mam was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in August 2018 with a prognosis of 6 to 12 months. 4 weeks later she was diagnosed with vascular dementia. She is having no treatment for both. It breaks my heart to see her. Her fav words when you ask how she is “I am fine” when I know she isn’t. I am 55 married with 2 grown up kids but I am an only child and it’s so hard for me to care for her. Macmillan nurses came out when she was first diagnosed for a while but stopped in November. Last week mam was poorly so I took her to GP and had a full rant about being on my own and it’s the not knowing that scares me. Macmillan are calling to see us tomorrow so will have a chat with them. It’s good to read the stories on here and I am pleased to have found this forum x
