My mum had throat cancer 3 years ago and beat it. After all normal check ups with her ENT doctor she got put on 6 monthly reviews. About 4 weeks ago her mobility slowly started to decline after what she believed was a badly pulled leg muscle, she was referred for physiotherapy which did no good. It was only until this problem slowly started to become worse that she was referred for a CT scan. Recently we found out that my mum has multiple metastasis in her spine, liver, kidney, lung and other bones. I do not know how to feel. I feel numb. In the space of just over 4 weeks she has gone from an inderpendent woman to requiring a hospital bed downstairs, a frame to walk and high doses of pain relief. My dad seems very task orientated at the minute trying to sort it house work and making sure everything is in place. I just feel deverstated and confused about the whole situation. I just don't know how to feel.
