Hi all I'm sure all our situations are different. Was just looking for some advice on how to stay positive in the worst situation. My poor mum only has 2 /3months left. She is sleeping most of the time and is in pain a fair bit of the time. I cant stand not being able to help her. I feel down most of the time but trying to make the most of the precious time we have left with her. I have a 2 and a half year old son who loves her to bits which breaks my heart. But anyway if I can be of any help to anyone to needs some support feel free to message lots of love to you all

Hi, I'm sorry to hear about your mum, I'm in a similar situation with my dad, terminal brain tumour, given months. I know how difficult it is to watch them in pain, distressed and knowing the outcome of this horrible journey.

In terms of staying positive, I put a positive front on for him but inside I'm melting. It's all surreal, a situation I never ever imagined we would be in. It's also so tough when you have children to care for, I'm missing mine as I'm doing the 24 hour care now for Dad so spend limited time with them, I'm lucky to have a supportive husband.

Happy to private message for support for both of us. Please stay as strong as you can, you are amazing.
