My Mother has stage 4 pancreatic cancer that came out of nowhere. I am shocked and feel overwhelmed. She had her first chemo treatment today. They told her she would be very sick in the next two days. Therefore we cancelled Christmas for now. I just need people to talk to.

Hey @Clydesdale‍ how are you doing? I am so sorry that your mom is diagnosed with stage 4! I am sure you are shocked and puzzled. The "realization feeling" takes a while to settle in, and I can imagine it is also with you. 

How was it during the holidays? I know it was a struggle, but as a recommendation try to be strong for your mom and continue as much as normal as possible and encourage her to do so also because the mind is so powerful! Let me know if you need to talk. I am new to this site also.

@Clydesdale very sorry to hear about your mother's diagnosis. I have moved your discussion to the more appropriate forum "Living with Cancer" so that more users will see it.

How are you holding up? And your mom? Any updates on her condition?

@makeitstop 

TY makeitstop for your email! Finally someone responded to my post!  The holidays went okay, but we did not spend it with my mom. Yes, I would love to talk further, but would like to know more about you and what condition you are experiencing as well first as well. And, HAPPY NEW YEAR !

 

Kind Regards

Clydesdale
