He went so quickly at the end, very peacefully. The last few days have been upsetting and exhausting, and I know the following days will be the same while I support my mum through death notifications, funeral arrangements and the needs of daily life. But...

I am a fixer of things - people and problems and this is the story of how I am trying to cope with the biggest 'problem' that I cannot fix or mend or even paper over.
My mum was first diagnosed with cancer in 2005, it was uterine and she had a full abdominal hysterectomy. This was followed by radiotherapy, all went well.
The following summer she began to experience symptoms of an inner ear disorder...

Sal is doing...
