I’m 22 and my mum has just been diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer. I don’t understand how this is happening as she’s so young and still has her whole life ahead. It’s awful just watching her deteriorate slowly when we all inevitably know what will happen in the future. I’m struggling to process everything and I’m an emotional wreck at the moment because I can’t imagine what life will be like without my mum. I have to break the news to my younger siblings but I don’t even know how to get on to the conversation. Does anyone have any advice for telling young children their mother is ill and is incurable?
