Thank you Helen for your reply. I hope it all works out ok too , not just for my sake but I know Mum wants to be there more than anything too. My parents live in Spain and I’m in the England, so apart from when Mum took very ill in November and I flew out to be with her, I did meet her consultant then but due to how poorly Mum was and the shock of it all the wedding was the last thing on my mind and we were just taking one step at a time. Its only now that Mum seems to be doing so well on treatment then it’s been on my mind. It’s quite hard because Mum doesn’t seem to be wanting to ask her consultant any questions about any of the treatment and she is very clueless about it all, she is just going with the flow and taking one month as it comes, which I guess if that’s what is working for her then I completely understand. My Sister and I fully understand all about Myeloma due to researching so much on it (which I know isn’t always a good thing) and have been able to give Mum bits of information but even then Mum doesn’t seem to want to take it in, bless her. I actually think the wedding is what is giving Mum so much strength and to be honest I think it would break her heart if she was told she couldn’t attend. I will be visiting Mum next month and will go to her appointments with her so may get a chance to have a chat with the consultant then.
Im so sorry for your diagnosis, I hope your doing well and I wish you all the luck in the world.
Thank you again for taking your time to reply yo my post. XXX
