Supporting my mother with bladder cancer

I posted a few weeks ago when I was told my Mums cancer was operable and the scan showed it hadn't spread, I was just informed that it has spread, how can it have spread that fast within 2 weeks, it makes no sense to me!

My mum is also in Hospital and I can't even see her, she is on Morphine so she can't use her phone, it's an horrendous time!

  • Hello GlynJ

    I'm so sorry to hear that your Mum's cancer has spread within a short time and that you're currently unable to visit her in hospital. It sounds like a very difficult situation for you both. 

    Do you know if Mum will be staying in hospital for the time being or is there a plan for her to be discharged with some care in place? If there's anything that you'd like to talk through with one of our nurses you're welcome to give them a call. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Best wishes,
