A member of my husband's family has a secondary brain tumour. First it was in the kidney, then spread to the brain. This is the second tumour in the brain. The first was removed, but this second one can not be. He will be treated with both radiotherapy and steriods.
The treatment so far has been very slow and my husband's family have not had much information given to them. The problem is that they are very shell-shocked and it feels as if they aren't given being given information as they don't know the right questions to ask.
Another relative is going in as support and to try to get the full picture. So I am asking, what questions would be good to ask to understand what the hell is going on?
