Oh dear, it must feel as though your poor mum's world (and by extension, those of you who love her) has collapsed again.  So once again you have to support your mum at the same time as coping with your own worries for her.  I so much hope that there are other family members to help support and care for  your mum.    I also hope you are not having to wait a long time before you have some more information as a result of the scans.  Just take things as they come; try not to panic about the "what ifs".  There is not a lot we can do to help you other than say that please come here and chat whenever you want to let your feelings out and we will listen and try to help. Life is very unfair sometimes.  Annie
