Hello everyone,
Sadly my wonderful mother was informed today that after having an X-ray that she has lung cancer in the top left part of her lung. She is going to be referred to hospital to have that part of that lung removed. They will not know what stage it is until they operate and she may have to have chemo. I don’t think it has totally sunk in for my mum which is understandable whereas it has hit me like a ton of bricks. She means everything to me and I want to do all I can to support and help her. At the same time I am scared and have been holding back from breaking down as I want to be strong for her. She means so much to me and is central to my life. I am only child and she raised me as a single parent and has been an outstanding mother.
i want to learn all that I can about lung cancer so I can fully support my mum through what is going to be a difficult time. In wanting to be positive and proactive has lead me to look at this wonderful website. I have read peoples own expereinces on here and have been humbled by what I have read.
I might be deverstated but I do have hope and like someone else stated in this section,I suppose I am looking for a community who have similar expereinces.
Thankyou
