Hi, my mum got told today from her cancer nurse she now only has weeks to live , I knew how sick she was getting & being there for her 24/7 between my sister & I caring for her we knew what was coming!! But hearing it was utterly heartbreaking!! The fact I still need to try act normal for my mum like don’t worry we will make it better when really this time we can’t! I just can’t believe I’m going to loose my wee mum who does everything for us & has been there for us all our life no matter what!! How does anyone come to terms with this it’s utterly heartbreaking just so so sad we can’t help her xx I feel so so sad for her right now I hate cancer so so much & I can’t believe there is no cure for all cancers it’s so unfair xx

Hi LFC Sandra

Just read about your mum being admitted to hospital and no visiting , we was told there was no visiting when my mum was admitted . I took it further and spoke to the ward manager . Please don’t let them restrict your visits to your mum . We was allowed one at a time until she was discharged into a nursing home .

Because she is end of life, you should be able to visit her

Hello Sky1, so sorry to hear about your mum. I'm going through exactly the same with my dad and I understand what you mean. Even though we know it's coming, it's like being told all over again when they tell you you only have weeks left.

My dad is my rock & my best friend. I'm lucky in that we all talk about it openly and we try to keep some humour in there too.

Be kind to yourself and and take each day as it comes, some will be bad days & hopefully some will be good days.

Lots of hugs to you xx
