I haven't slept much last night after my usual chat to my son and grandchildren in Australia.
My d.i.l has had a return of the cancer.She had a double mastectomy over 5 years ago,not long after they emigrated.The children were only young then and her parents went out when she had her first breast removed and OH and I went when she had the second.She has been very positive,lives a very healthy life style,in fact she works part time as a physiotherapist/accupuncturist,and is very good and dedicated to her job helping others.
It has returned in her hip and she is going in shortly to have a replacement,and they are seeing the oncologist on Weds.
I feel so helpless and far away,and can't go and help out with the children(9 and 7) as I have OH needing 24 hour care.
It is their silver wedding anniversary on Weds as well as her 47th birthday.
Please give her some thoughts,also my son to be strong for her.

Oh Brenda I am so sorry to hear this, it is such a shock when it returns and it knocks you for six. You may feel helpless but you are on the other end of the phone and she knows you would be there if you could.
I am sending positive thoughts and praying for her and all the family, and for you to keep strong for your son, he will need you on the phone when his wife has her treatment.

Positive thoughts for your d.i.l. I am sure she is getting the best possible care and now the children are older they will be able to help too, so the whole family pulls together and becomes closer still because of this. Don't beat yourself up over not being able to go and help, it will be hard to support them long distance but you will know best how to help them, maybe by being there for them all to talk to seperately if they want to - perhaps the youngsters will want an ear to ask you things or say things they might not feel comfy saying to their parents.
I hope all goes well for her and the whole family and wish you the strength to help them from a distance.
