I am so sorry that you have to face 2 very serious health conditions at the same time. Life has thrown you such a devastating blow your way.

I only wish I had better words to express my sympathy and empathy.

Have you been provided any support from your GP?

Perhaps contact Macmillan or Marie Currie?

I only wish I could help you and your family more.

I send my very good wishes to you and your family.

I hope you are able to access the care and support you need to help you all through this time.
