I am so sorry to hear about your mum. I think you should spend as much time with her as you can, tell her you love her. I'll pray for you both.

From what I've learned about cancer, when death is near, the person will stop eating and sleep more. I am experience this with my dad now. I thought with a death sentence like this we could do so many things he enjoys, but he just doesn't have the energy. It's very depressing and we all want nothing but the best for our loved ones. Usually the moderaters post a link with more information, but I found the link they sent me that helped a lot. Maybe these can answer some of your questions. Take care.
