I lost my Father back in 1986 aged 42 from a brain tumour, it was distressing but managed to cope. I developed cervical cancer in my early 30s but fought that, in my mid 40s I was diagnosed with cancer yet again and underwent extensive chemotherapy and radiotherapy and have pulled through. My Mother was diagnosed with Breast Cancer last year and had to have a Mastectomy and radiotherapy, unfortunately this year she was diagnosed with secondary lung cancer which spread rapidly around her body, she wanted so much to see her Grandsons who live down South so her Consultant said she was well enough to make the journey etc.How wrong could it of been..... My poor Mother passed away after two days in a strange Hospital and I feel so so guilty for taking her on that journey. The guilt eats at me day and night, if only I had done things differently !
