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.
My Story
Hi everyone my name is Clayton.I was married for 23 years got divorced and then met my new partner.After 12 months into the relationship she found a lump on her right breast.Then with 5 surgeries, numerous radition treatments and heaps of chemo she passed away in Jan of this year.With 4 years of being a full time carer I understand the strain that it puts on family and friends.What I am trying to do now is start up a support group for men with wives or partners that are going down the cancer road.If anyone can give me some advice or help on this would be greatly appreicated.
