New here and need advice to navigate this situation?!

Hi Pink, my heart goes out to you your mum and your family, the generic answer to your question is you have to do what feels right for you and your mum there is no right or wrong answer but I’ll share how we are dealing with it. My beloved hubby was diagnosed on 2nd December 2022 and saw the oncologist on 20 December who told him ne had advanced pancreatic cancer that and spread to his liver, one lung and an adrenal gland. Without treatment he had “just a few months, less than 6”.  We were determined to enjoy my brothers 60th birthday party , my birthday and  Christmas despite knowing these might be the last family get togethers and our last Christmas together. Our mantra was making memories and we continue to try and make as many memories as we can and I take as many photos as I can. Sometimes hubby gets fed up with how many photos I want - but then I explain and he understands that there will come a time when they are all I will have. I cannot bear to think of a future without my soul mate so for now I enjoy every single day we have together and am happy in the moment - i park any sad feelings for the future. So Pink, I would highly recommend making the most of special days for what they are at the time, try and avoid being sad there might not be another but do take loads of photos…..I think everyone should do that anyway. Sending love and hugs xxx
