She has also just been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and frontotemporal dementia so it’s a very testing time at the moment for all of us.We are at hospital tomorrow to see if it has spread anywhere else ,I’m at my wits end so god knows how my mum and dad are feeling!Has anybody else had to go through this?

  • Hi Blondie12

    Welcome to the forum and I'm really sorry to hear about the news that has brought you here. It sounds like a very difficult time for you all at the moment. 

    How did you get on at Mum's appointment yesterday? Hopefully they were able to give you some positive news. Have you been allocated a specialist nurse for Mum by the oncology team or indeed by the team that have diagnosed her Alzheimers and dementia? If not do get in touch with the relevant departments and ask if there is someone that you can speak with. Hopefully they will be able to give you some advice and additional support whilst Mum is dealing with all this. 

    If you thin kit would help for you to speak with one of our team of nurses then please do give them a call. They are available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Sending best wishes,
