I have my mum staying for a few days, I have told her pretty much everything, but not actually used the c word. She is kind of in bits as it is, and extremely worried about my recovery after hysterectomy as I have two children with special needs.
should I give her the full picture? Well, I know I should really, but how? My poor old dad is also in a bit of a state having had two strokes a couple of years ago, so she has that pressure too.
thank you SO much for this. Everyone has been telling me that I've just got to tell her, but my gut feeling is that it's just going to be too much for her. You have helped me make that decision! I will keep on telling her what's happening without mentioning the c word I think.
