Shedhand, on behalf of my family, I hope she does not linger too long. Cancer is no fun. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and you family.

Truly sorry to hear about your Mum.
I have some idea of what your (both) going through.
My sisters FIL is in a slow sad decline and all anyone can do is keep him as comfortable (pain free) as possible.Have a good one

It is definately not the best way to go & we all have to eventually.
The one thing it does have going for it is the chance to say goodbye.
If you have some unfinished business, make the best of the time now.Cliff.
If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.
