Hi guys, I just signed up to this group. I am having trouble coping with life lately..  My Mum was diagnosed way back in 2008 with Breast cancer. She had radiation but no chemo.  My Father was diagnosed on 8th May this year with Multiple Myeloma, he was in so much pain in his back for about 2 months before it was diagnosed. 4 days after he was diagnosed my Mums oncologist called me and my brother and father into her office to tell us that Mums cancer is now in hips lungs spine ribs and brain and the breast cancer is worse and the treatment she has been having the past 4 years isnt doing anything any longer. She has been have Fulvestrant and she blew the oncologist away for 4 years.  So within 4 days we were told both parents are dying of cancer.  I brought them to my house. 2 hours away from theirs to care for them. I took dad to the local hospital for pain management and get him started on treatment which they were going to do until he contracted pneumonia. exactly 3 weeks from being diagnosed he passed away.  Now my mum is getting worse. Very tired, confused, feeling like crap all the time. not wanting to eat. has refused her tablets, She wants to die and I am wondering if this is a way to make it happen.  I am sorry for going on and on but I really need someone to tell me this is ok and quite normal. Thank you for reading. xx   ... View more
