On Monday I took Mum for a CT scan and then we had a Consultant appointment. Her bloods were fine and although she is weak, they decided to press ahead with her Chemo on Thursday.
But then on Wednesday her Consultant received the negative results of Mum's CT scan and ordered her straight into hospital. The scan showed some pelvic abnormality and we don't know what this is as yet but it is possible that it is a secondary source of cancer. As a result of this, all Chemo treatment has stopped and she has been admitted to hospital for a full medical assessment.
In the meantime, her time has come to an end at her current Residential Care Home as they have a full house from next week. So Mum would have had to leave there in any event. That leaves us with locating a new home possibly with Nursing Care for when she leaves hospital. She is currently unable to cope alone at home.
N has been a massive support over all this time and has done a tremendous job is identifying new homes in the area suitable for Mum. She has made appointments for us to go and see three of them on Monday.
