Hi everyone. My name is Jessica and nearly 6 weeks ago my mum was diagnosed with a stage 4 aggressive lymphoma cancer. The tumour has affected her stomach (causing a perforation of the stomach lining), spleen (which has been completely destroyed) and the tail of her pancreas. She has completed her first cycle of chemo and is part way through her second, her next cycle is near the end of April. She has just returned home after being discharged from hospital on Monday. Her hospital stay was prolonged after we found out the trauma caused to organs (mentioned above) and after an episode of blood clots which she has had treatment to dissolve them, the blood clots will take weeks to fully dissolve we have been informed. I am currently the main support for my mum. She has support around her, but as her daughter I feel like I want to be there every step of the way.
I just want to say, I hope I may be able to help others out on this forum and will be grateful for any advice I am given.
