Tonight my partner is making his way to say his final farewell to his mum after she got sepsis from side effects from radiotherapy for brain cancer..the infection started in her mouth (ulcers)

I dont know how to help him or what to say or how to help him

Is there anything I can do for him

Willing to hear all ideas please

It's killing me sitting waiting for him to call me to tell me shes gone

Its gonna break him I feel so sad for him already and I dont want to mess it up

Hope this all makes sense 

  • Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    I'm really sorry to read how poorly your boyfriend's mum is and it's natural that you want to do all you can to support him.

    As the community is divided up into different support groups I'm going to recommend that you join the supporting someone with incurable cancer group where you can discuss your emotions as well as how best to support your boyfriend with others who are in a similar situation. Clicking on the link I've created will take you there where you can join and then post in the same way as you did here.

    If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help
