Hi, i am so so sorry that you have to go through this, its a terrible disease and very distressing for all involved, i know how you feel about, one minute youre fine, the next you have a cancer diagnosis and your world is turned upside down in one second...we are also going through this and have two small children involved, its very difficult to know what to tell them as we`ve noticed saying nothing makes them scared and unsure about what`s going on in their lives, the upheaval of therapy and all the other stuff you have to go through with this diagnosis, constant hospital visits, feeling lousy for days after chemo (not always i hasten to add) and just generally not being able to  be yourself, is very difficult for children to understand (where did my happy mum go?!!!).....i truly believe it depends on the ages, your smallest will not need much except lots of love as usual, and the routine as normal as possible the 4 and 6 year old is a little harder and i think the best way is to tell them something wonderful, like Celine Dion did with her children....that daddy is always going to be there and watching over them but from up in the sky, like a star or an angel, they can get great comfort from this as they dont yet understand the concept of death......live every day the best you can and surround yourselves with love and only positive things as a family unit, enjoy you children and spend as much time with them as possible...the love you have for eachother will still exist even when you are not there......i really wish for you another outcome to your diagnosis, drs are not always right!...many  blessings xxxx

Sorry to hear about your son. I hope he fairs better than my husband. Unfortunately, Kev lost his battle April 2020, 10 months after being diagnosed :-(.

I can't remember them all anymore but Turmeric was definitely one of them as well as Cbd oil

Hi, i hope this post is okay. Two weeks go my dad got told he has stage 4 colon cancer. Since then he has had a PET scan. It's been 10 days now and still no news. Is this a normal time span to wait ? Or is my dad possibly not telling me.
