Now I have been taking care of my Mother as she is legally blind, now I have been diagnosed with what appears to be cancer and don't have anyone to help me either. My mother is 81 and in better health than me. I am 55. I know that the hospital you go to will have very educated people in there to help you with every aspect of your aftercare. They will help you to get everything situated so don't worry and put all your energy into recovering. My thoughts are with you. Angel
