I would be scared. But i would also stay strong for her. I wouldnt let her see that im worried and scared. Because it may bring her down.
I’m sorry to hear that, yea your scared about you’r mums health.
But try to be strong and show her you are here for her no matter the up’s or downs.
I’m sure she’ll understand if you get upset around her.
Good Luck .
When you read this, I am sure you will **** me! But let it be! When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me, whispering words of wisdom: let it be! If the left breast has to go, it has to go. When you had to have a tooth removed, or had to visit the doctor, sure it would have pained you but she knew better and just let it be. So you ought to do the same! Breast cancer is only as harmful as the belief. Believe and pray that it will not affect her and despite the diagnosis I assure you, it will not!
My grandfather was diagnosed with throat cancer in 1979. I was not even alive then. And my family pretty much did nothing about it and he died 21 years later in 2000….Just goes to show!
BELIEVE! AND LET IT BE!\
I am sorry to hear that.
You have to stay strong for her, and your siblings. You should be bending over backwards for her now, just like she has done for you.
Make her feel special, and keep her company a lot, however if you make too much of a fuss of her she may feel that she is holding you back, or being unfair to you.
Do reasearch on Breast Cancer. There are so many things to help those related to the ones that have it, aswell as statistics, and care.
You should be as supportive as you can with anything she decides to do, wether sitting in bed all day, going through masses of surgery, or not take medicine and spend the last few months paragliding, and bungy jumping, or if she is taking all the right treatment and plans to be healthy soon … whatever she chooses to do you should be happy and supposrtive with her choice.
All the best

hey sweety as a nurse who deals with cancer patients every single day… I will tell you they only thing you can do is pray and be there for your mom.. she is still the same person your best friend and you love her.. she will be going through a tough time for a while but having breast removed is one of the best things she can do and the hardest… she will have to go through chemo and or radiation and will feel tired and sick.. help her by taking on extra stuff around the house so she can rest.. laundry dishes vacuuming have rest of the family help too…hug her and tell her she will be alright and you love her and will be there for her…. remain positive many women survive breast cancer now a days… your mom will have the surgery and treatment she might loose her hair but you can buy cool wigs on line with her… she will go through a period were she feels less of a women because she lost a breast my grandma did and I use to joke with her that they were useless anyway once you were done breastfeeding…and I would tell her that many women have reconstructive surgery to have a breast made and guess what they often use fat from your stomach to create it and so you get a free tummy tuck as a bonus.. she might need a shoulder to cry on and do not be offended if she does not cry in front of you she is a mother and wants to protect you it is our natural instinct… but if you see she is sad tell her it is okay to feel sad and you are there…I will keep her in my prayers and you and your family as well… if you have any question feel free to email okay… as a nurse I deal with this every day.
You said it; :she has bent over back wards for me”, it’s your turn. Also might consider the patience and understanding you will have to have for her, along with helping her keep her spirits up, which is all about you keeping yours up for her. Good Luck!
