Hi there ...

Oh hunny, life and cancer suck sometimes .. but you are half of her .. look in the mirror.. she's right there in you .. she will live in your heart .. and she will see through your eyes ... you'll carry her through your journey in life ... I was young when I lost my mum....but I've felt her close at different times through my life .. just because we can't see them, doesn't mean they are not there ... you can do things that would make your mum proud .. and as a mum on my cancer journey... that's what I want for my kids .. l want to look down and see them smile .. and take me with them in their hearts ..

Hold on to every second now .. leave nothing unsaid.. it's o.k to feel anything... it's the price we pay for loving someone so much ... we were blessed to have had them in our lives .. so be kind to your self .. it'll be a very hard year .. we can't go round it .. we need to feel it .. sending you a vertual hug... Chrissie xx

How tough for you to be losing your Mum at such a young age. I lost my Mum in December age 73 and it was still too soon. Hold on to your memories. Remind your Mum of all the happy times you shared. Ask her about her as a child and growing up. Record her voice. Take photos. Listen to her favourite music together. All these things will help keep her close to you. Stay strong for your Mum. You will get through it. Hope you have plenty of support around you xx
