Hi,

i'm laura and i'm 14, my mum started going downhill around 6 weeks ago, 2 weeks ago it got to the point where she could barely walk, eat, go up/down stairs, get up off the sofa and when she fell over she couldn't get back up. 2 days ago she got told she had 2 months left at best. me and my dad are relatively strong people, however every night we cry together.. we don't know what to do without mum. she does everything, and she means everything to us. she's the person i tell all my secrets, the person who lets me get all my emotion out, i tell her everything - she's the only person who understands.. it may seem silly to ask, but how can i prepare myself for her death?

thank you..

laura x
