Hi People,
I have had a phobia of cancer for a long time and now what I thought was my worst nightmare came true... my lovely mum has been diagnosed with breast cancer following a mammogram. Luckily it looks to be a small lump and has not spread to nodes, the NHS team seem confident it can be sorted with surgery and maybe radiotherapy (obviously we don’t know what type it is yet). I thought we would both fall apart and yet... we are both very calm and I was confident but feeling shaky now thinking about the future and how I can best help her. Not sure what I should say or do or what to expect.
