Just got news last Thurs that my Mum's cancer has returned and it's all over. She's weeks possibly days left to live. She's got mac nurse out today and they're gonna make her comfortable etc. I have DD1 aged 16 months and pregnant with DD2 (19 weeks). My Mum won't get to see the new baby. I am filled with sadness and dunno what I'll do without her, we've always been close more like sisters. I wanted the kids to have Nana close by to spoil them but not gonna happen, is it ok to be upset infront of DD1 or do I contain it till she's in bed? Anyone any experience of this? I don't want her to feel any of my pain. Also my Mum is desperate to know what we're going to call DD2 before she dies. Trouble is DH and I cannot agree on any names, would it be wrong if we told her something we choose now but then it changed?
