i just find out my mum has cancer

I don't know how to feel. We just found out she has a tumor in her kidney. She is crying all the time and I don't know what to do. I can't cry in front of her because I would just break down. If it's a bad tumor or a good^^ I'm going to find out today. It all came out of the blue. My heart hurts so much. I wish it was me instead of her. Please help me, I don't know what to do.
  • Hello minaa,

    Really sorry to hear you have just found out your mum has a tumour in her kidney. The news must have come as a shock to you and your mum. You mentioned you were going to find out today what kind of tumour it is. Have you had any more news today? You must have a million questions going around in your head.

    If you are based in the UK, don't hesitate to give our nurses a ring on 0808 800 4040 Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm - it's a free number. You can ask them anything you want about cancer - they're brilliant!

    I will now let our forum members welcome you to the site. I know these are difficult times for you and your mum but rest assured that you are not alone here.

    Best wishes,
