My mum has been diagnosed with liver metastases

My mum is only 57 and has just been diagnosed with liver metastases which started in her lung. On thursday we will get prognosis and am petrified as the cancer has already spread to liver and lymph nodes. To me my mum looks fine but the prognosis doesnt look good at all. Can anyone give me advise on this type of cancer please . Just really scared but were trying to be strong . Thanks in advance 

  • Hello Sharon, 
    Welcome to the forum although I'm sorry to hear about Mum's diagnosis. It's understandable that you're feeling scared at the moment. Hopefully Mum's appointment on Thursday will answer lots of the questions that I'm sure you have. 

    If it would help to talk to one of our team of nurses, either before or after her appointment, then please do give them a call. They're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    Best wishes,
