Hi so I’m 36 mum of 3 19,12 & 9 I’ve just recently been diagnosed stage 2 invasive lobular breast cancer.
My concern is we are only 4 months away from taking care of my mum who was diagnosed stage 4 lung cancer with a brain tumour! I upped my family and moved back into the old family home to take on being mums carer for 7 months until we sadly lost her, now the after affects my 9 year old son suffers from panic attacks around dying. My daughter started high school last September it also had a big impact on her she ended up getting bullied with nasty girls making comments ‘I hope your nan hurry’s up & dies so she stopped talking about it and finally when mum sadly passed my eldest said he was glad as he hated seeing her in pain.
I feel as if they’ve seen to much and had a traumatic time, am I bad if I try keep this diagnosis away from them? Please help.
