My mum has been given days/weeks to live and I just feel numb.
How do you cope with this news and carry on life as normal???

Sorry to read your sad news.
Be with your mum as much as you can and don't leave anything unsaid.
Sadly my mum passed away in January and by the time the hospital allowed me and my brother to visit she couldn't speak or write but was with us mentally. She also didn't get to see my dad who was in a rehabilitation place. So I had to hold the phone to her whilst he talked. It was the most heartbreaking thing ever they were married 61 years. Even tho there was the no touch rules I held and kissed my mum and I'm so glad I did because when I was allowed to see her a couple of days later she was end of life and asleep all the time.
Life does carry on albeit its very hard but you learn to cope and remembering the good out weighs the sad.
Try and look after yourself as best you can and don't be afraid to ask for help.
