Millen, I am sorry for your moms diagnosis and the impact that it has on you. My wife was diagnosed with Terminal Lung Cancer in March 2019 and with treatment she was given 12 months. My advice to you is to make everyday special to your mom, what she wants give her, where she wants to go take her and just make some wonderful memories for yourself to be able to sit down in a few years and smile about. The hardest thing is getting to grips with the sad news but try and put it to the back of your mind and take every day as it comes. 

My wife is having Palliative Chemo and is due her 6th cycle tomorrow. We dont know if they will offer more but I have to accept that one day it will come to an end and she will be gone but at the moment everyday is precious. 

If you have a local hospice they will get you a worker to help with all the things that need doing like the Financial side and Power of Attourney. They will also help with medication. 

Just stay strong for your mom and enjoy the time you have together.

God Bless You Both

Thank you so much. I was actually going to head to the solicitors tomrorow with mum to get power of attorney - but will definitely ask the nearby hospice. 

Thanks for all the kind supportive words. All back at you and your family too x

Thank you Chrissie.

well I’m my mums son but I may as well be her daughter too :)

thanks I had totally forgotten about Marie curie but you’re right. And yes to saying whatever we want now / better to celebrate life and share what we want to without regrets. 

Thanks again xx
