It's going to be a long road

I don't post often but I just need a vent for a moment. I found out last night that my mother who just turned 50 has cancer. She won't find out for a few weeks what they can do for treatments so we are all in limbo. I am so upset about all this but know she will get treatment if she can. With having this little girl in January I never thought that she might lose someone this early especially my mom. I'm trying not to stress because I know it's not good for the baby but it's hard not to worry and stress. My H and I currently live a few hours away and can't move closer so it sucks that we are stuck here for 2 more years and can't travel but once a month most of the time. I know my family and I will get through whatever it is and are optimistic that it's all going to be fixable and able to be treated and my little girl will get a long time with her grandma that I don't want her to miss. Sorry for the ramble just had to get it out.

I'm so sorry about the diagnosis. I know it's hard not being able to be there as much as you want.

I'm very sorry for the diagnosis and the distance. I'm sure your mother will appreciate your support any way she can take it though, even if it's just by phone (maybe Skype??). What type of cancer is it?

They're not sure the exact type bc it's in several places such as liver, small intestines lymph nodes and blood stream but they did say it was an uncommon cancer but not rare so there are treatments.

I am so sorry. Cancer sucks. My mother in law was diagnosed with cervical cancer a few months into my first pregnancy, fortunately they caught it early, she had surgery and never needed any treatments other than that. However, if it had been my mom, who lives four hours away, I would have lost my mind. It is so difficult being far from your mom on a regular basis but when something goes wrong it makes it so much worst. Sounds like you have a positive attitude and that's what you need. Until you know what you guys are facing try to stay positive

That is a lot to deal with. My thoughts and prayers are with your family and I hope your mom's prognosis turns out to be very good. Cancer sucks.

Sending all my good vibes your way.  Cancer is a hard diagnosis to handle especially when they can't say right away what treatments are available.  Many hugs.

I'm so sorry. We live far away from family, also, and it was really hard when H's dad was going through cancer treatment. I hope you're able to come up with a plan of attack soon.

So sorry to read this. I can only imagine what your going through. I am hoping that your mom gets some kind of good news when she gets more information regarding the diagnosis.

So sorry. Cancer is a terrible disease. Hoping for good news for your mother. It has to be tough being so far away. Try to relax and have faith!
