Hi Parents, I actually don’t even know how to word this or what I’m asking for but I just need to get this out. My 13 year old daughter has had quite a few health issues this year past 12 months and we have recently found out she has a brain tumour - the doctors have told her it’s highly unlikely that it’s cancer but she cannot shake that feeling and truly believes that it is so along with that she has had quiet a few issues with friends so her anxiety is at an all time high, when she is with friends she is very happy as she is a very social girl but when alone and at night things aren’t the best. I had a phone call from one of her friends today saying she had seen marks on my daughters thighs today so I questioned my daughter and made her show me and unfortunately there are cuts. I explained to her that she needs to tell me when she is down and not do that to herself as we have a very good relationship and she normally tells me most things so now I’m just stuck my husband has said she is only doing it for attention which I know is not true - the poor kid has so much going on and it’s just gotten too much for her. She currently sees pain specialists at the RCH so I will be mentioning this to them at her appointment next week but is there any advice from parents that have been through this. Thank you ...
