Dear Muffit - you never have to apologise on this site. Putting on a brave face is something many of us (and I include myself) have done to help our families - but you need to let out your fears and emotions as well and here is the best place to do it. Thinking of you and your family, especially your Mum. Val X

Hi muffit,

This is the most amazing site, pour it all out on here it really does help and remember you are only human and everything you are feeling is normal!!! Putting on a brave face is what we do as mums, carers etc but you do have to let it out as well, have shed most of my tears in the bath!!!

Thinking of you at this difficult time, the waiting is the worst thing, talk soon,

Hi Muffit,

Sounds like your Mum is a very lucky lady to have you and your husband caring for her. I know it's so hard to be strong and be brave but sometimes you just get an inner strength you never knew existed. Be proud-your Mum knows you are there for her.

Thinking about you, Mum and the family with every good wish X
