This is when it's hard!
 

My Mum has just spent a week in hospital. She has had jaundice since before christmas, she has had a MRI, a CT scan and has been booked for a PET scan. The latest news I have had from home is, there is something on her liver and we need to find out what it is. Best case scenario is scar tissue is causing a blockage. Worst is the cancer has come back. I asked if I should come home for a visit. The reply I got was 'Lets just celebrate your
Mum being home for now:blink:'. My head tells me to wait until the results of the latest scan my heart says get yourself back there. I know everything has been compounded by last years events. God this is sooo shitty.

Thanks for letting me vent:o

Oh Piff Poff. Im so sorry to hear about your mum. You must be going through so many emotions, wondering what to do for the best. Its hard to know what to do being so far away. I do know what you are going through. Will be thinking of you, Best wishes to you and your mum.

Thank you guys. It is honestly a real nightmare - especially as I believe I am not being told the whole story. Oh well, I can only hope.

I think ... if it were me ... I'd be inclined to go back .... help "celebrate the fact that your mum's home", and while you're there make sure in your own mind what is really going on ...... hope it turns out to be good news! :thumbup:

Hugs from me too PP. I'm inclined to agree with Morwenna. Really hope it turns out not to be anything too serious.

In your shoes... I think I would want to be with her - so if I could rustle up the airfare then I'd go. I'd see her and celebrate this time together, even if there might be other opportunities in the future. Because if it were my last chance to be with my mother and I didn't take it, I would always regret it.

Really sorry to hear this Piff Poff, can only imagine how hard it must be for you.

Sending hugs and karma, do hope she's ok.

Thinking of you Piff Poff. You are the voice of reason to lots of people here.
Hope the outcome is good for you on this. Go with your heart if just to stop fretting.
