Hi all, I lost my sister to Myeloma a year and a half ago. After 3 years of fighting this cancer she died just after Xmas. I have a lot of unanswered questions from that day. She went into hospital because she couldn't breathe. I spoke to her in the morning, thinking she would go on a nebuliser and be OK. When I arrived at the hospital she was in an induced coma, and on a breathing machine. After 2 days they turned it off and she passed. But I keep thinking was there more we could have asked or done. Is this how most cancer patients pass at the end. I feel I could have asked more questions. I cannot get over losing her, as everyone who loses a loved one.
Hi Hopelaughlove and welcome to the Online Community but so sorry to hear about your sister and the journey you find yourself on.
The lose of a family member can be such a challenging and stressful time but getting support from others who are dealing with the ‘exact same' challenges can help a lot.
