My beautiful Mum has terminal pancreatic cancer

Mum has been diagnosed 2 weeks ago and is deteriorating so quickly, it is devastating...... She is pratically not leaving her bed, can't hold any food in and has lost soooooo much weight..... To make it worse she is very far from me..... My lovely dad is doing what he can, he's 80 years old , fit and in good health.

I am crushed inside, and very confused, not quite sure what i expect in writing this in here but thanks for reading

  • Welcome to Cancer Chat Sophie although I'm very sorry about your mum.

    This must be very difficult but I want you to know that many of our members have been on this journey so will understand what you're going through right now and will hopefully be along soon to offer their support, advice and experiences.

    I hope you're able to get down to see your mum soon but in the meantime I hope this information we have on our website will help you figure out when the best time may be.

    Kind regards,

  • I’m sorry you are having to go through this. My mum Is terminally ill but hasn’t deteriorated as quickly as your situation. I am struggling as it is and the most powerful thing anyone has ever said to me is that my mum will live on in me, half of me, there she is all the time. 

    I know it isn’t the same but I hope you get some peace knowing in future that she will be with you. I hope they can make sureshe isn’t in pain now. Xx
