Hi Hannah,

I messaged you a while back when your Mum had been diagnosed and you and your family were wondering about hospice or home care. I'm so so sorry to read that your Mum is now so poorly and you're having such a tough time. I know how horrible it is having experienced so much of what you've said with my Mum a few months ago. 

I'm sure it might already be being given on the drivers but my mum was given midazolam latterly and that seemed to help calm her. 

In these days it's hard to find comfort I know so all I can say to you is talk to your Mum, hold her, tell her you love her, talk about anything and nothing. I know how unbelievably hard it is. Seeing them suffer is just the most unbearable thing but just by being there you will be making a huge difference to her, even if you don't feel like you are. 

take care of yourself and if you want to send me a message always happy to chat.

p.s do you have a Maggies centre near you? If so I would really recommend visiting one. The loveliest most supportive people to chat to who really get what you're going through. Took me a while to visit one but was so glad I did
