Hi, this is the first time I’ve ever posted to a forum before...
My mum has been unwell since Christmas and 2 weeks ago was diagnosed with lung cancer that had spread to her brain.
She’s now bedbound, sleeps all day, uses a commode etc. Up until 2 days ago she would eat a small amount now and again as the steroids made her hungry. She no longer wants to eat. I realise this is her choice and I shouldn’t force food upon her but as someone who loves her very much I’m struggling with this.
She’s having chemo to try and ease the symptoms enough to have a better quality of life for however long she has left. But she’s so weak now. I don’t know how to help her anymore. I’m not really sure why I’m posting but it may be helpful to me if anyone has some experience of this. Thank you
