Hello, just looking for a bit of advice on how to support my mum. She is nearly 68 and has recently been diagnosed with secondary breast cancer in her shoulder bone. She had thyroid cancer about 10 years ago and breast cancer 5 years ago, both of which were successfully treated at the time (radio iodine for the thyroid, mastectomy and chemo for the breast). She is due to start medication (Ibrance I believe) and hormone injections soon, but after reading through the information leaflets and possible side effects she is feeling very down about things and worried about her quality of life going forward. If there is anyone going through similar treatment I would be very grateful to know about your experience. I’m trying to be as positive as I can about everything for her and I’m telling her that they are only possible side effects, but it’s hard as it’s not something I know much about.
