Lisa V Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Hi - I'm a new member. My mother is nearing the end of her battle with small cell lung cancer. I'm hoping to find some support in dealing with the difficulties that I'll be facing in the weeks ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyW Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I am sorry to see this tonite!! Hope Your mom is comfortable and not in any pain for starters. Are you using a Hospice program? When was she diagnosed. What have Drs. said to you? How are you holding up? I know this is a hard thing to deal with. Remember yesterday, Cherish today and Pray for tomorrow.

jstdzy Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Hi Lisa, I'm sorry you and your Mom are having to go through this. I just lost my Mom in Feb. from a staph infection, she was in congestive heart failure. If you need to vent let us know. I keep telling this to everyone, but one thing that really helped me out a lot was a friend made a tape recording of some voice mail messages me Mom had left. When I'm really missing her it is so wonderful to be able to hear her voice again. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieB Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Hi Lisa, I'm sorry to read that your mom is on this journey. I lost my dad to sclc so I can understand. We've also got several members who are survivors of SCLC who can offer hope and inspiration. We are here when you need us. Just keep posting. I will keep your mom in my thoughts and prayers.
