Ovarian Cancer Caregiver Support?

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can help myself with my mom's ovarian cancer. It's been 3 months and 3 hospitals and I've been with her every single day since August (they are trying to kick her out of the current one) and recently since they have been trying to discharge her, I'm getting really anxious and scared. Any stories or suggestions on how to cope so I can help my mom out would be appreciated!

I'm a caregiver for my 19 year old son and I know how you feel! I spent 8 months with him almost 24/7 especially when he was hospitalized. I'm a member of several online groups, and found that each one met a specific need.

One of the best groups that offers a social worker that moderates the group is CancerCare. They offer online support groups and you can also call them directly with questions. You need to join a group, and agree to participate, but it's free:

Here are a few more resources that are specific to caregivers for patients with Ovarian Cancer. Perhaps you can find a support group close to where you live, or join an online group.

I basically learned how to be strong. It imay be up to you to carry this burden. I embraced the task because I knew I could . . I didn't really want to do it, I would have liked to have someone hold me up, but there was no one else . . I would have prefered that my son be healthy . . but that was not reality . . there was no one else that could take care of him the way I could and encourage him, root for him, stroke his forehead, call the nurse or doctor, talk with him, comfort him, and help him follow the journey no matter which way it went.

Caregivers carry an enormous weight. But, you can do it, you will find your strength. You will be there for your mother.

Take care and good luck.
