About Mothersue

My mother has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Terminal. So difficult to even know where to begin. I've just registered because I thought I may find people who are in a similar situation to us. My mum does not wish to speak to any organisations or support groups. She says she is not ready yet. She is still even after 3 months still getting biopsies as they have been unable to get conclusive results from previous samples taken from pancreas. It's is in the liver now and this time they have taken samples from there for analysis. We get the results this week. We are lucky to be a close supportive loving family but we are totally devastated, lost and feel helpless. None of us know what to do for the best, well there is no best really.....except that mum continues to be really well, however we are all on tender hooks, my parents especially worried that anytime mum is feeling unwell that, that is the pancreatic cancer kicking in and starting to progress. I hope this makes sense. Don't know what am hoping for from this forum , but am grateful for the opportunity to reach out
