mums been diagnosed with bowel cancer

My mums been diagosed with bowel cancer.

I keep questioning why?

She's such a good person, she doesn't smoke, drink, do anything bad, why????

It sound ridiculous the above, nobody deserves it, why my mum? 

I'd give anything for it to go away? To be healed? She's done so much for everyone & this happens?? It's mental pain like no other, the helplessness?

Feels so selfish to ask 'how can I cope', it's my mum it's happening to not me, can I ask that? Is that ok?

How do I help?

  • Hi

    I'm a Mum.... a Mum who was told the very same devastating news almost 8 years ago....

    I'm sure my children thought exactly the same as you do right now.

    As a Mum I became a fighter... stronger than I ever thought possible, I was going to do everything possible to fight this and stay with my beautiful family as long as I could.

    All I could do was put my trust in my medical team and take it one day at a time.

    How is your Mum doing? Has she got a treatment plan yet?

    Any questions you may have, send me a friend request and I will do my best to help xx
