Actively dying

I'm so sad. My auntie is loosing her battle. She's been sedated and is near the end. I'm so broken. I love her so much . I went into her today I stoked her hair I told her she was beautiful. I told her I loved her and I was proud of her. I cannot explain how I thought it was going to be terrfyingt seeing her like it but I was overwhelmed and felt i needed to tell her it was ok. That she will be ok. I'm going to miss her so so much. My mum is with her now. Thankyou for listening. X

    Hi there hunny ..

    You sound amazing ... and bet she's really proud of her niece too .. I'm so so close to my nieces, couldn't love them more if they were mine .. so I know how close you two must be ...

    I'm so glad you got to hold her hand and tell her those lovely words .. I've heard hearing is the last thing to go .. so whoever goes, keep talking .. but always try to remember her as she was ... cancer wants you to just remember these last heartbraking days .. but she's more then that .. she's the auntie that she was before cancer touched her .. remember the good memories , then cancer looses .. 

    And let any feelings you have out .. they are there for you to process what your all going through .. holding things in helps no one... but then after you do that .. you'll feel stronger to carry on .. hold on to your mum .. share feelings, hugs, and know it's o.k to share tears too .. then you'll help each other through ..

    Sending you a big hug .. Chrissie xx

    Thankyoj Chrissy for your kind words. She fell asleep at 10.04 last night. Mum and her other sister were with her. I will remember the times she wasn't poorly you do forget at this time about those times and thankyou for saying about it because you are right. I'll miss her forever. But she is peaceful now and in no more pain. Thanks again Chrissie for replying x
