My kind, loving mum is in the final stages of cancer. I returned home over Christmas to spend time with her as I live overseas- 24 hour journey home.She has my father and brother looking after her and she will return home from hospital in the next few days- hospices are all full for now.
Now I am back overseas and just want to be with her but the most I could get is maybe one week off. I just feel so heartbroken that I am so far from her when this time arrived. I don't know what I am asking but what can I do to support her from here- I plan to call every day and write a letter every couple of days. I told her how much I love her at Christmas but what else can I do to help her and help myself prepare and make sure everything that needs saying gets said? I feel like I am going to just break into pieces when she leaves this world. I just cannot imagine the world without her in it and now I must.
