Hi there 

My name is chris and my mum died suddenly in may. She has breast cancer in 2014 and in January this year was given all clear after 10 years . 

But in march became I'll couldn't eat and by mid april had lost 3 stone. Gp said it was hiatus hernia.  That's why she could not eat. But turned out after a ct and MRI that she has mestastic breast cancer in liver ,pancreas ,spine . We were told on monday the 8th of may and she dies 215am on the thursday the 11th . I was by her side I flew in from scotland where I live. 

After a few weeks we had a meeting with the professor who felt with her and were told that it was incredibly rare for 0.0567 % chance of getting it. 

I guess the reason I ma on here is that I find it hard to digest and deal with that it was so aggressive and quick. 

I say that I tried to save her but I couldn't I know not healthy but not sure what to do or say. Its effecting my marriage and work life as I am quite manic and rush things . Think it might be grief but not sure anyone else had similar and felling feeling similar.  

Thanks for reading 

Chris
