Hi,
I sadly found out 2 days ago my mum has terminal cancer, I am really struggling to cope as my girlfriend is due to drop my son today and I have always wanted to make my parents grandparents.
My mum coming home on Monday hopefully to sadly pass away at home, they have told me she may only have a few months or maybe even weeks.
I feel so angry and heartbroken as I was going to make her a grandma I’m struggling to come to terms with it all as she in her bed making jokes to me and my dad.
My dad is finding it really hard too as he has recently had a nervous breakdown so I’m trying to support him as well at the moment.
Any advice would help please
Hi and welcome to the online community
I'm very sorry to hear about your mum's diagnosis at at time which should be full of happiness for you with the expected birth of your son.
I hope you don't mind me suggesting that you join and also post in the supporting someone with incurable cancer group, which is a safe and supportive place to share your worries as well as talk to others about practical subjects.

When you have a minute, it would be really useful if you could pop some information about your mum's journey into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Edit Profile'.
