My Mum. . Like so many on this site to their daughters was my everything. . My best friend. . Closest confidant and hero. . She stayed sane after my younger brother was killed. . She kept me sane when my dad was killed and she was the role model and other parent in my children's life. . She beat breast cancer 25 year's ago and nursed her husband (my stepfather) through Motor neurons disease, she was devoted to her family and we were devoted to her. . Mum was diagnosed in June and passed away in August. . 7 weeks after diagnosis. . I don't want to be part of any cancer site and I don't want to accept that this is my reality. . But it is. . And my heart is broken. . The heart pain and physical pain of being in this world without my mum is overwhelming and above all exhausting. . But to see so many similar and a couple almost identical stories to mine and women like me just missing and wanting their mum , is a small comfort. . To just know that you are not alone. . I see reflections in many of you mirroring my stages of grief, some days all hit me at once. And then confused as to how? Why? What just happened. . I send every one of you my prayers. . It's an evil disease with no mercy. .
