My mum died 3 weeks ago she was fighting inlnesses for along time she had meningitis and nearly passed but some how she made it after about a year she was in constant pain that wasn't cured and 4 months ago she went to hospital and I haven't  seen her since I. couldn't have even seen her last smile I felt broken I value my mums life over mine i wish I could have taken the pain away recently I have been very bad I'm very depressed  I have a 7 year old sister I try to be strong for her but my mum was my world and now she's gone and if there's no world anymore I should be gone to I wish I could have been a better son 4 months she was alive in hospital and I couldn't see her I begged each day and the week I was going to see her was the week she passed I see no point to life now everything I did and was going to become was for her I feel like my life is ruined and there is no point of it.

  • Hi Fai,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm very sorry to read about your mum - I can only imagine how difficult this must be. It sounds like you're understandably struggling at the moment and no doubt the emotions are tough to deal with. Things must feel raw and I'm sure there's a lot going through your head. Try though to not place any blame on yourself or to beat yourself up in any way about this. The last few months have been difficult especially as far as things like visiting people in hospital go, so there's nothing you could have done about this.

    I don’t think a cancer forum is the right place for you to get the help you need so I would suggest you take a look at some of the helpful advice on the Young Minds website. On this site you’ll find a wealth of support options for younger people who are dealing with grief and the loss of someone close to them.

    I hope you get the support you need

    Wishing you all the best,
