Cervical and bladder cancer

my 77 year old mother was diagnosed with cervical cancer that has spread to the bladder a few weeks ago. She is currently hospitalised because of a blood clot on her lung so any radiation treatment has been put off for a month. She's been given 6 months without treatment and 6 to 12 with. Don't know what to think anymore 

  • Hello Debs100

    I'm sorry to hear about your Mum's recent diagnosis. Undoubtedly it's been a hard time for you all. I hope that she is comfortable whilst they're dealing with the blood clot. 

    It can be difficult processing all the information that comes along with a cancer diagnosis. I wonder if you might find it helpfu lto talk things through with one of our team of nurses. It may be that they're able to answers any questions you have and I'm sure they'll be able to offer some support. You can call them on 0808 800 4040 (Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm). 

    Best wishes,
