Hi there lzzi ...

Bless ya .. l can't imagine how heartbraking your feeling right now .. your probly in shock .. what cancer has your mum got ... I'm a breast cancer lady ... l had a grade 3 lump .. and thought my time was up .. but it has come a long way .. there's lots of us on here that are going through it ... and my op was July 2017 and I'm still here going strong .. as lots of us here are ..

It's not gonna be easy .. but once you get your head round it, you can hold your mum's hand through it .. she needs you now .. you know it's o.k to share tears .. it's o.k to feel angry... it's o.k to feel scared ... but share how you feel with mum .. she's probly trying to be brave for you .. and holding in her tears ..

I'm here most days... I'll chat as much as you need .. and hopefully others will pop by and show support to .. can you talk to your teacher ... she may be wondering why you look sad .. if you can talk to your teacher, you'll have someone to talk to if you get emotional there ... 

So hold on ... ask mum to call McMillan and see if there's councilling in your area for your age .. talking and sharing will help you through .. it hurts more holing it all in ..

Sending you one of my nanny hugs,  that I save for my granddaughter... they are only for special people like you ... always here if you need a chat ...  chrissie x

Hi IzziG 123

So sorry to know that you have to go through this at such a young age!

Not all cancers are incurable and end up in death it all depends on what type of cancer your mum has and what stage it is.So don’t keep worrying too much and keep things to yourself.

It is best to talk to your Mum and be supportive.She needs you as much as you need her.She may not talk to you much about her condition thinking you will be upset.

So encourage her to talk to you so that she feels better- just as you are she must be in shock too so help her and help yourself too.

I am sure you can get some counselling from your school if you talk to your teachers too.

 Be strong and be brave - there are lots of people here who will be able to support you whenever you want to.It will feel good for you to talk about your feelings and emotions and get it out of your chest.

Sending you lots of love and hugs

Radley
