My mum had ovarian cancer. She died 3 weeks ago. She didn't want to die. She has been in and out off hospital since October and finally got a diognosis just before Christmas. She came home for 2 weeks while awaiting appointments at the hospital to hopefully have some treatment we were told to cure. While there, she had a stroke her second this year. This went undetected by staff my mum rang me to say her speach had gone and I had to ring them to tell them what had happened. Unbelievable. She then got carted off to another hospital basically to die.

I fought for her after many phone calls from her crying begging to come home after figuring out the system and fighting I got her home and cared for her myself. She died 2 weeks later. The main thing I'm struggling with is how upset she was she was devisted she didn't want to die she was so sad and I could tell. 4 months it took from feeling a little poorly to death. Cancer is cruel.
