Hi everyone

  Not  sure where to start....... :( My mum has just been diagnosed withTubo ovarian serous carcinoma -3c and i'm lost in a fog.

I have for the last 3 months been concentrating on my mum so much so that I forgot about myself, and about a week ago when doctors started preparation’s for her chemo sessions and gave us the dates…… it finally hit me….. really hit, gut smack…. This is my mum and I’m so scared I’m going to lose her, I haven’t even considered me, in all this time been so detached and put aside my fears as well as my own upset.

Too busy being strong and keeping her spirits up and hope for the future, and that I don’t know who to talk too…. what support I should be taking myself too, I so worried that if she sees me stumble or fall, it will set her back.

So I’ve wandered around in a fog, crying alone in the dark at night.  

Then out of the ‘blue’ on my Facebook page, which I haven’t been on for ages this post ‘Cancer Research Chat’ appeared….. and well…. here I am.
