Can I have a hand hold?

[BumbleNova]

My wonderful mum is in her final days and I'm really struggling. The cancer in her liver and lungs in particular are causing her great pain and distress. I'm finding it so hard to watch.

Oh bumble seen your update. Like everybody else sending lots of support. As for me i dont know how i feel as it seems so unreal atm. I feel emotionally battered by it all and so exhausted but unable to sleep for long.

I am sorry your mums death was so distressing and hopefully in time you will be able to forget the worst of it. You were there for your dear mum to the end so take comfort in that as i am sure she did. Xxx

Ps thank you to all who have expressed condolences for me as well. It really does help x

Bumble I'm so sorry for your loss, my Mum passed last May, I still struggle to comprehend that she's no longer here, she was 68, I'm 47 so not a youngster but I miss her so much. My Dad has amazed me how he's coped on a day to day basis. Thinking about you, your Dad and your lovely Mum, grieve as and when you need to and cry, because it's a good release 💔😢

to Bumble and flapjackfairy, and to all who've posted who lost a loved one.

Bumble and Flapjack I hope you are both coping as well as possible. We had my Dad's funeral yesterday which I was dreading but was actually nowhere near as bad as I expected. The thing that surprised me most was how comforting the words of friends and family, as well as people I didn't really know, were to me on the day. I didn't think it would make that much of a difference to how I was feeling but it really did. It feels like a massive hurdle to have coped with and now I wait to see how I feel in the next few days/weeks/months - everything is still a bit surreal. Hugs to you both and anyone else who has lost someone dear to them.

echt and loveis thankyou so much for your kind thoughts x
