Recent diagnosis

My mum is 72 and has just been diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer that has spread to her lungs lymph nodes and chest wall. I know it's not cureable but don't know yet what treatment she will get if any as we are in the early stages of assessment.  She has further tests this week and I'm so afraid they are going to tell us it's just a matter of time. Also she seems very confused now and disorientated and her mobility has been affected. It's so hard to see her decline so fast

  • So sorry your having such a hard time ... it's so sad when we feel so helpless ... just take one day at a time cozy it must feel overwhelming  right now ... she must be a lovely mum for you to feel so heartbroken  ... my thoughts are with you ... make every day count ... I did before  I lost my mum and it helped ... I'm sure they will always watch over us ...   big hug from one daughter to another xxx

  • Thanks Chris just trying to take one day at a time the waiting is frustrating but we will hopefully know more after her tests at the end of the week. She is the strongest one of us all! She amazing!
