Hi Ailsamac

I am so sorry to hear this. My mom has been recently diagnosed with stage 4 glioblastoma also. She is however having treatment. Still a huge shock for all involved and a feeling of surreal and wish you would wake up. Stay strong (i know its hard) , your boyfriend needs you, but also take care of yourself xxx

Hi my dad had lung cancer and died 3 months later. I spoke with the Macmillian counsellors and asked them everything, a nurse even phone me back and explained and answered all my questions. This helped me understand fully and help me stay strong for my dad. I will forever be in their debt.

One piece of advise I will give though is to spend as much time as you can with him-be there for him. Get the professional support you need to be able to be strong for them, do a little research too when you are up for it.

Thank you for your comment, I hope your mums treatment makes her feel better...and you take care xx

Thank you for your advise, very much appreciated...take care x
