That's spot on. Make sure you talk as much as possible both with her and the rest of your family about it too.

My eldist nephew who is ten is taking it rather badly:(, the other two haven't been told as they're to young to understand. I have talked to him and told him he can ring me any time he wants.

Ah that's tough. Stay strong - you're a good man. Thinking of you.
 
Aye Tank best wishes to your mum and hope she fully recovers.
My mum was admitted for a pretty serious Gas/stomache Virus 2 days ago and is expected to be back home tomorrow, so I know the feeling of nervousness one will be experiencing. Keep ya head up and be positive, I'm sure our Dr's can do good.
 
Sorry to hear that Tank. Stay positive, good news that its been caught early.

I've been hit by four life changing health illnesses/problems in last 13 years
(currently suffering from Lymphoma) and two of my grand parents died of cancer. It's really tough to take and can be a really hard time. But you and your family will get through it I'm sure. Hope it all works out.

Ahhh man I'm sorry to hear of the news mate. I've had to endure the ordeal of seeing my mother suffer through cancer (not the same type mind but it certainly had its complications) and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. However the NHS patched her up and she's been clear for 8 years now. They'll sort your mum out.

Be positive it's the best you can do and just try to be there as much as you can, you're a decent chap so I figure you know that already.
 
Really sorry to hear this. Hopefully it has been caught early enough to be treated. I know what you're going through and sadly almost every son/daughter has to go through something similar at some point. I lost my father to cancer (I was there when he died, holding his hand, a truely life changing experience as I felt the baton had been passed to me) and my wife has been at hospital with her mum every night this week (the doctors aren't sure what it is but she has been resusitated once already).

But hopefully your mums has been found in time. The teatment will be hard going and all I can advise is to be there for her. Being a parent myself I know her first thoughts would probably not be for herself... but how the news will affect and worry you.

Give her a hug. Tell her you love her. Tell her you're there for her like she's been there for you every minute of your life, even when you haven't realised it.

All the best.

Sorry to hear man keep your chin up and tell your nephew to keep his chin up too try not to let ttoo much pressure to build up (i know its easier said than done)

i dont know if you believe and i dont but if there is a god he's on your side im sure

Hope all goes well
 
Tank, terribly sorry to read the sad news but in case you need another route or avenue to investigate :

They are conventionally qualified Doctors with insight and expertise, for example, with alternative cancer treatments such as intrevenous Vitamin C, which can be very effective for some cancers.

My best wishes for you and your family. :)
 
Sorry to hear that. I got told my dad had cancer of the liver & colon (so it had spread) in hospital outside his room - every time the doctor said the word cancer I felt fainter and fainter then remember hitting the floor when I fainted...

That was Easter '07 and fingers crossed, he's looking good for a recovery.

All the best mate - stay strong, sorry I can't offer you more advice - everyone deals with it differently.
 
keep ure chin up m8, she has a chance which is amazing. i had Hodkins Lymphoma 3 years ago, been all clear 2 years now, so its all doable.

unfortunately my mum is in the same kinda situation, but hers is uncureable, stage 4 small cell lung cancer :( .

whatever u do, spend as much time as u can with her, and tell her to take each day as it comes and not to worry about the future (what my cancer nurse said).

thoughts are with ya m8, horrible situation to be in

regards
