Four weeks ago my mum appeared to have the signs of a stroke. My brother called an ambulance, but due to the current situation, it was decided by the paramedics and mum's doctor, that she should be kept at home. My dad and brother cared for her as best as they could. During this time, no doctor called to check in my mum. Last week, my mum deteriorated and could hardly walk. She was confused and struggling to even stand. My brother immediately phoned a doctor and after my brother sternly telling him that she needed to be admitted to hospital, he finally agreed. An ambulance came and took mum and she was admitted to a stroke unit. She has undergone many scans and tests. The care that she has had since being admitted to hospital has been excellent. This morning my brother and father were called to the hospital to be told that mum has not had a stroke, but she is in the end stages of brain cancer. I can't process it at all. I was given the news, along with my sister this afternoon and I feel like my world has ended. We have asked for mum to be brought home, as we've been told she has between a month to six months to live. The worst part in all of this is that I've not seen her for five weeks and I haven't been able to visit the hospital. We are going to make arrangements for mum to be nursed at home. I just don't know what to expect. I've had to switch my mindset from a stroke with rehabilitation, to the worst possible news. I'm 47 years old and my mum is 72, I honestly don't know what I'll do without her. I want to give her all the love that I can for the short time she's with us. I would be grateful for any advice. I haven't stopped crying since I was given the news this afternoon. My husband has been incredibly supportive and we will pull together as a family. I know that there are thousands of families going through terrible pain at present. I'm not good at asking for help and just feel that this is a safe place for me, if someone could just reach out to me, then I'd be grateful.
