My mum is dying. I’m on the train trying to get to her with my DDs. She’s waiting for me. Can people please help me stay distracted. I’m trying to not be a blubbering mess in front of everyone.

Thank you for your kind messages. She passed away at 3am. At least she’s no longer in pain. I’m so relieved that I was able to say goodbye.

I’ve just come across this post. What a great team everyone on Mumsnet made by keeping you distracted for your terrible journey. I’m sorry for your loss but pleased you were able to be with your Mum at the end 💐
