• more cancer

  I am utterly shattered as I type this blog. I don’t know how to express the feeling verbally anymore. 

  Tonight my sister broke the news to me whilst it was all happening in the hospital. The doctor’s are concerned that my mum may now also have Liver cancer.

  I’m not even sure of the technical terms or how this even happened. The doctors are praying that it’s just my mum’s liver playing up as per usual as she’s had a history of having an abnormal liver but whatever it was that they did that lead them to come up with this outcome is pretty dire.

  Tomorrow they will run more tests, things like jabbing needles into her liver to get a sample to see what’s going on and to determine whether or not she does have liver cancer.

   

  Now we sit and worry ourselves silly…

  but really, it is what it is. If she does have liver cancer, it doesn’t change much other than the doctors having to change her line of medication and more specialist investigating and trying to understand her disease. If she doesn’t have cancer then it’s great news and the doctors will have to continue to monitor her medical condition closely.

  Not knowing is the worst feeling of them all. I’m sick with worry, and I’m scared.

   

  It’s like we just can’t catch a break. I just want my mum better and home…

  not more sick…

   

  this really sucks and it hurts
