@Chev thank you for your reassurance.
My mum seems okay but I think she’s more stressed and upset than she is letting on. It’s an Asian thing - if you’ve watched the (fantastic) movie that just came out this year called The Farewell, you’ll know what I mean. Thankfully she and my dad are very close and I suspect she’s been confiding in him more openly.
I’m afraid to show any weakness to her too because I want her to find strength in my calmness. Breast cancer at this stage is very treatable and I guess I want to keep reminding her that by treating the matter with composure.
