  • Hi there ..

    I know it's a sad situation .. but sometimes it's knowing when to say, enough is enough ... it sounds like your mum wants to make the rest of her time as best she can .. and make the most of every day ..

    I know people she loves will want her to do anything for a bit more time ... but she has chosen quality over quantity. . It has to be her choice ... make the most of every day .. and it could be longer then you think .. everyone is different ... but fill a lifetime of memories into every day ... 

    Share tears and hugs .. and it's o.k to admit your both scared .. ask her if there's something she still wants to do .. or see .. ask about her life growing up .. everyone has a story ... 

    I lost my mum suddenly from a heart attack and had no chance to even say good bye ... she'd just gone .. she was my best friend too .. what I'd give for one day .. or even one hour to tell her how proud I was to be her daughter ... so make the most of this time ... leave nothing unsaid ... 

    My heart is preying you get more time ... sending you a vertual hug .. Chrissie x
