No problem at all, its a horrible horrible situation and when it happens to both parents it's like someone up there is just being cruel. However what it does do is make you really think about what's important in life, and at the end of the day we are all going to the same place and nobody knows when. It really does force you to think about today.

I don't think anyone even doctors can accurately predict timescales, because it's so easy to obsess over it and think of it like a count down instead of making the most of every day. Life is a real challenge sometimes but your not alone :) There's a lot to be said about the power of the mind. I remember I watched a documentary on it once, and they were saying that sometimes when people are in accidents and end up in court over it, they only actually stop feeling the pain when they receive compensation and it's all over.

Like the other geeks have said, I also believe in complimentary therapies i.e. reiki and massage etc. I know there's controversy over massage because when we are taught they say oh no massage can spread cancer cells. According to my research, there's actually no evidence to suggest this, and more importantly massage boosts your immune system as well as having so many other benefits. There is so much out there for your Mum. And nutribullets are amazing, a great way to get some fruit and veg into you with very little effort, and so easy to clean.

Remember your not alone, sending lots of love xxx

Good point x

Situations like this really do make you realise whats important and what is not x
When my son was 5 weeks old they told me and my partner he might have a tumour in his kidney ,
My whole world fell apart and suddenly all those stupid things that you stress over daily are no longer important
And everyone comes together and its crystal clear whats more important in life x

Thankfully its turned out as an abscess
But i still had that feeling of what i thought what was going to be x

Send you all my love and stay strong
Keep your mum in positive mind set as i truly believe this helps xx
 
Blossom - when we was going through the same thing with my nan only just last month, it was her that kept me strong! She was amazing and that helped me and the rest of my family.

Beautygeek, sorry to hear you went through this with your nan.
And I know exactly what you mean.

Mum said to me, the day following the diagnosis, look, we can't just sit around and be miserable, otherwise I might as well have died yesterday.

I think she's amazing, what a way to think, and it's helped me be strong.
 
How are things blossom?x
 
Beauty geek thank you for thinking of us.

Mum came out of hospital almost 2 weeks ago and is receiving palliative care from district/hospice nurses but is very very weak.

Im sleeping at her place as my stepdad has dementia so not an ideal carer... In fact im virtually caring for both.... I come back to my place mid morning, mid afternn and mid evening, after getting their meals, medications etc, and do a couple of clients a day plus shopping etc but its quite tiring and at the end if the day im shattered, but am glad to be able to do what i can for mum.

Xxx
 
Blossom, I just wanted to give you a virtual hug. :hug:

I was lucky in that I had a sister to share it all with. I know it's a tough business and I think you're doing incredibly well.

Sending you lots of loving thoughts. :Love:
 
That's ok I have often thought how you are coping.

I hope you are getting the support you need from the carers and are getting some time to just be your mums daughter and sharing precious moments with her too.

Mum sadly passed away this morning about 7 hours after admission to our local Hospice. I was with her and she slipped away in her sleep.

My life will never be the same.
