We found out a few months ago that my mum has womb cancer. She is 60 years old. It was grade 3. She has since had a hysterectomy, but when the results came back they found it had spread to the outside of her bowels. I dont really want to ask her much about it as I dont want to upset her. She is now having chemo for 5 hours every 3 weeks for 6 sessions followed by radiotherapy every day for 5 weeks an hour at a time. To me this sounds really bad as its such a massive amount of therapy.
I havent spoken to many people about it as everytime I think about it I just get too upset. I have 3 small children and a business to look after and all I want to to is sleep and for it to all go away. Its making me ill just thinking about it and I am snappy and anxious all the time. I just want to wake up and for it all to go away. I cant bear the thought of her not being here anymore.
Has anyone ever been in a similiar situation? She hasnt been told its terminal or atleast she hasnt told us if she has but im too scared to ask anymore that she has let us know :(
