Thinking this could be our last Christmas. .....does anyone have any suggestions of what to buy my Mum who's cancer has just recently spread....things aren't looking too good :/   I have bought all the "normal" things I usually get her to keep it normal but wanted something special to help her on this journey or something like that.     Thanks in advance.

    Max and Kim are right - time, just sitting and chatting over a coffee.  Best thing in the world.

    Sorry to hear of the situation you are in and my immediate thought was to give your time, which can't be bought but is such a precious thing to give but you are probably giving that in abundance. We all like different things but we ladies usually enjoy a bit of pampering so with that in mind perhaps a session at a spa or if Mum is not able to go out then some therapists do home visits. A nice foot and hand massage can be so relaxing or a body massage if she is able for that. My thoughts are with you and hope you manage to find something right for Mum out of the suggestions made.
