my mum rang me earlier on in floods of tears (v. unlike her) telling me that she'd just been to see the GP about reccurent stomach pains and that they'd found her abdomen full of fluid.
She's being admitted to hospital tonight.
She didn't really tell me any more as she just broke down crying and had to get off the phone and to hospital, she said that hopefully they'd have a better idea tomorrow.
I'm really scared and worried and upset. My mum is 55, v. slim, and, it seems, never ill.
What could this be? I'm driving myself crazy here and of course my brother and I both couldn't stop ourselves from googling, and the main thing it keeps coming back with is abdominal cancers.
