How can I help?

Found out today a family member has stage 4 lung cancer. I haven’t managed to speak to her ( will do tomorrow) and all I know is she was sent home  with stronger painkillers tonight after admission last night. 

Why would she have been in a renal ward?  I’m worried.  I want to  support and help  her.  She’s a very private person . 

 

  • Hi there ... sorry to hear that diagnosis, it’s always hard and you probably feel a tad helpless right now .. but if you just hold her hand and listen to her, it will help.. I think just being there and knowing you care .. for me it was being listened too, no matter what I was worried about .. there’s probably not a lot you can say .. that’s why people stay away.. it’s the “what can I say” sinario.. when just saying I’m here and a little hug we need .. hope that helps a little ...
