Is there a support group for children with cancer please? In here or General Health/ Children's Health?

Thank you

Oh gosh, there are no words. I am so desperately sorry.

Thank you. We were hoping at least to get to bone marrow transplant but unfortunately his cancer is just too fucking aggressive.

We told our other children today too. Both have birthdays in the next couple of months

Oh @blindspots. There are no words that are anywhere near adequate. I am so very sorry. Horrendous.

You must be absolutely shattered by the news. Will you be able to take him home? Xx

I’m so sorry Flowers

Thank you. We won't get to take him home home as it's too far away and too far from services, and then we'd have to bring his little body back here afterwards but we are trying to find somewhere we can take him to be outside again

There are no words. I am so desperately sorry. Thinking of you and your little one from afar.

@blindspots FlowersSad so sorry 😞

Oh that must be so hard for you all. I really hope you will be able to take him outside to feel the fresh air. Take each moment as it comes.

Blindspot, I'm so sorry. I hope your family is together and these last weeks with your boy are full of love.

I'll join you with the swearing - childhood cancer can fuck right off. It still takes my breath away that I belong on this thread, and I'd give anything not to.
