Sorry to hear that, Bertie xx 

Have you offered Macmillan some feedback about this? I think they'd like to know about your experience. 
 

This site you're on now (Cancer Research) is a really good site, which includes this forum. Feel free to come here whenever you want a chat xx 

Thank you for replying.

I haven't offered feedback. I didn't know if I could or  if I should. I know we all see things differently from our own place emotionally, my views may be skewed because of this.

To be honest it has taken me a few months to adjust to mums diagnosis and then to losing her. 

We dealt with it because we ran on adrenaline and it's only now I  realise  that 'real' support was lacking for her and for us.
