Cancer of the womb ..:((((

hi ...I don't even know how to start ..but I feel so sad and angry and all the negative emotions I can think of ...My poor mom had cervical cancer 12 yrs ago and she was only just diagnosed with uterus cancer ( not a recurrence ) G3 ...Mom had an operation and funny enough waiting for another one at the end of December ...after that Chemo ... I don't understand why chemo ??!! she previously had radiotherapy ...so that's might a reason why .. She is feeling good in herself ..phisicly ..not so much emotionally I think ...Altough she is trying hard not to show it ...I am hurting so much as I Live in a different country and can not be with her all the time ...it kills me ..I feel like I can't cope .. -I don't know what am I going to do when she will start chemo ..Mom has my brother and sister but I still feel quilty and hopeless...Please share some positive stories with me as I think I am going to go mad ....:(((((....

  • Hello Natilane, 

    I'm sorry to hear that your Mum has been given a new cancer diagnosis. It can feel incredibly overwhelming when someone we love and care for is given the news that they are ill. And it sounds as if you being physically distant from your Mum is particuarly difficult for you.

    Have you spoken to your either of your siblings or your Mum about her chemo? Different cancers often require different treatments and this may play a part in why your Mum had radiotherapy in her previous illness but is now having chemotherapy. 

    Please feel free to come and post here whenever you feel the need to chat or to rant or to offload Natilane and keep in touch to let us know how your Mum is doing. 

    Best wishes,
