Hello everyone, I've been lurking in the background for a wee while but you all seem lovely so here goes...
My aunt was diagnosed with lung cancer last year. We were told in October that it had metastasised to her brain. She underwent palliative radiotherapy and was doing ok until the new year when her lung collapsed. 4 weeks ago she then deteriorated then rallied. At that point she was transferred to a hospice. Slowly but surely she has been declining and today she fell into a deep sleep and hasnt woken up. I am scared that we are nearing the end and am very worried about my mum as she is her only sibling. My mum also lost her mum only 9 months ago. It just feels so futile and too soon to be going through this again. My husband is working away and my siblings are based elsewhere just now so I think im just a bit overwhelmed and didnt want to burden mum with how I'm feeling. Does anyone have a similar experience with this type of cancer? I fear we are at the point no one wants to get to and it's just a bit soon.
Thank you for reading. Xx
