Losing my mum...

So my mum is dying. She has cancer in her spine, lungs & lymph nodes. She's had 1 lot of Chemo but is unsure if she can take anymore. She can't eat, she tries and she sleeps a lot. Sometimes when she's awake she's snappy but I ignore that. I just want my mum to be how she was before, no pain, no cancer. 

  • Hi there ...

    SO so sorry your going through this heartbraking time at the moment.. I've just lost my sister to dementure ... she changed from a caring matriarch of our family , to being angry at us most of the time .. it was really hard .. but we kept telling our self it was not her,it was the dementure ... and we tried to let it go over our heads as hard as that was ..

    Yes I know that feeling , wanting it to stop .. we don't want to loose them, we just can't handle the pain / confusion they go through .. I did get my loveling sister back for a couple of weeks before she died ... she'd had the dementure 5 years .. 2 last year's getting angry .. but those 2 weeks where my sister came back, took away the past when she'd hold my hand again and talk gently ...

    I really understand , but they must feel so scared and confused as what's happening to them too .. esp if they were gentle before ... so please hold on in there .. get out into another room when it gets too much .. deep breaths .. I used to go for a little walk .. unfortunately with this virus that's changed ... but just take time to calm and realise it's the situation ... sending you a vertual hug... Chrissie x
