Ideas on helping mum through this tough time
Hi, I'm new to the group. MY name is Heng and my mum's been diagnosed with cancer. Her first diagnosis was in 2003, its re-occured again in 2012 and at the moment she's still going through possible further radio or chemo treatments. A tumor has re-occured during treatments after surgery and i'm beginning to worry. Surgery has become less of an option since the entire breast has been removed. She says she feels as though there is something pulling or attached inside of the area. After hearing this i've become to be very worry on what i can do as a child in supporting her. Dad left us in 2011 and all mum's family members are overseas. what are your stories and in what ways are benefical in aiding mum's recovery to be less stressful and painful.
Port Adelaide Support Group
This is in memory of Jean Jager, the beautiful, caring, leader of the Port Adelaide Support Group, that lost her battle on the 4th March 2013. My meeting with Jean just before my first chemo, she was so caring and she was so unwell herself as she was also having chemo. I was so touched when she rang me to see how I was..... and Her not good herself. She told me thats what we do we support each other. I'm not there yet Jean but I am going to try to follow in your footsteps. We do need to be there for each other as we are the only ones that understand xxxxx Rest in Peace Dear JEAN xxxxxx
