Lung cancer

Hiya, my mom was diagnosed with a 5 inch cancerous mass on her lung and 6 on her lymphonod the end of may, shes been working has a carer all throughout the covid situation, she had biopsies taken last thursday and it's really knocked her around which we expected but she has now been told she shouldnt be working atall what would she have to claim because of being off? We have to wait 2 weeks for the results from the biopsy being taken also. 

 

Just looking for some advice really, have any of your had a good recovery or know anyone who has x
