Just looking for help and support

Hi All,

I have joined the forum to get some support and help for myself.

On 6/5/18 I lost my father, aged 65, to prostate cancer. My Mum cared for him till the last few days until he went into a centre that helped out with the final days. On 29/12/18 my Mum, aged 63, completely out of nowhere, had a dizzy spell. Anyway, on 12/1/19 she was doagnosed with Stage 4 small cell lung cancer and metatastic brain tumor. (Apolgies if I havent go tthe terms quite right).

I cannot believe what is happening.

 

Thanks
