Good evening all

 

I really do hope someone can help me as going out of my mind, worried, can't concentrate, but doing everything I can for my mum as well as looking after my own family

 

My mum has terminally cancer spread to bones lungs and liver been unwell for nearly 3 weeks was in hospital no one knew what was wrong she came home and hasn't improved much some days better then others cancer is stable they are happy with that but liver is upset don't know why but then mcmillian nurse rang sending my mum over to the hospice and don't know why just left in the dark no contact to ring to see for myself why etc would oncologist or mcmillian nurse be able to tell my mum and be up front that she is very poorly and the worse??

 

any one been through this can give advice etc please

I'm sorry and thank you for taking the time to read

    Hi love, what a horrible situation to be left in limbo.  Have you got the phone number of the McMillan nurse, if you have then call and speak to them.  Or call the hospice and tell them who you are and ask to speak to someone who is caring for Mum.  Hospices can care for Cancer patients and she probably needs proper help as its all too much to cope with in your own.  The Moderators on this site may help you more and I'm sure one will be able to reply soon.  Hopefully this helps you a little bit.  Carol
