  • Hello Mamta77

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been diagnosed with metastatic cancer. It's obviously a very worrying time for you particulary as you are a single mum to your 5 year old daughter. I hope that you have the support of family and friends who can help. 

    Without knowing what the primary cancer is it's difficult for me to give you links to information but I'd encourage you to give our team of nurses a call and talk things through with them. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. They are available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Keep in touch Mamta77 and let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
