Dealing with losing my incredible mam

I'm really struggling to come to terms with my mams diagnosis. 3 weeks ago my mam was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, it was such a shock and I am absolutely devastated, she's only 53 and has always been so fit and healthy. I've tried to remain positive but it feels like the blows just keep coming, she's my best friend and I can't imagine life without her, I never thought I'd lose her at such a young age. 

I keep it together in front of her but sometimes on a night I just crumble, I don't find talking to other family and friends helps at all but not sure what else to do? is this just something I have to work through and it'll eventually get easier to cope with? I feel like I'm grieving for her while she's still here.
