Stay strong for your mum mate
It's a horrible disease but if detected early hopefully can be treated
I've been in your shoes but my mum was diagnosed when nothing could be done

Just enjoy every day with your mum and I hope all is going to be great after treatment I wish your mum best of luck mate xx

Been through the big C with my dad. And all he wanted was for everyone to treat him as normal and to live his normal life. Stay strong and be supportive which I'm sure you will be!

If you need to sound off we are all here. But also Macmillan support the family not just the sufferer so if you have any questions pick up the phone to them even if it's something little they are there to help

Tomorrow, I'll be celebrating a Mother's Day I thought I'd never have.
Mum was informed in January of 2012 she had terminal lung cancer with a life expectancy of between four to 10 months.
The tumor was 9.4 in size, whatever that means, it was big.
She decided to take treatment in order to prolong her life for as long as she could.

The first treatments didn't appear to be helping at all.
On one occasion, she was found on the lounge floor after taking morphine, and then taking more morphine.Simply, the first dose sent her doolally, and she didn't realise she'd taken the first dosage.
It went from bad to worse: the cancer progressed for lungs, to liver , to lymph nodes.
She persisted with her treatment, and in October of last year was told to take a seat as they had some news for her.
The cancer had all but disappeared.
She's still taking treatment and touch-wood a good few years more left in her.
So take heart mate.

That's awesome. She hasn't started cooking blue meths has she?

I tell you what mate, Walter White's hat would have suited her to a tee.

Often worse on the family of the person that has cancer, especially for any of us blokes as we are generally not able to deal with the stress of it. I learned that about myself.
Look after your mum & make sure the doctors give her all possible help Hurdy.
Hopefully everything will work out better than your initial thoughts.

Hiya buddy, lost my mum to it because it was too big and too late in the day to do anything but know of someone else who went through a couple of years of hellish treatment but came out the otherside looking 5yrs younger, be glad that they found it early is all I can say and stay positive.
