RR - I am so sorry to hear this. My mom had breast cancer that spread to her bone marrow. We were extremely close. I know how you are feeling. Even as grown-ups, we think our mothers (and fathers) are to some extent "immortal." A mother loves you in a way like no other. It is a terrible feeling to lose that. I send you many prayers and hugs. Always here if you need a shoulder or extra ear.

I do not know if this idea is right for you; consider writing a biography of your mother. Focus with her on experiences in her life that she wants to record for her immediate family and for the great grandkids she won't get to meet. I lost my mother last autumn and now find that I am wondering about many things that were only touched on in our life discussions. While cancer is a horrible disease that steels away our loved ones, it does nave one redeeming aspect which an oncology nurse once pointed out to me. You get a chance with cancer to close" your life and finish saying all you wanted to say to those you love. Closure can be a blessing in itself. |

Robin has a very good idea = video taping will be easiest. Writing is hard, but talking is better and capturing it forever is the best. to you RR.And that your mom's fight is as painless and helpful as possible.
