My Mum has moved to a Hospice

Started : 2.6.2018 by Lia

Hi Everyone, I'm 17 & my Mum recently got diagnosed with Cancer in April. These past few months have been very challenging, everything was going well she was about to start treatment until we got the news that it was spreading rapidly. My Mum & I are best friends we used to do everything together, especially after my Dad passed away in 2013. It hurts that my Mum is so poorly now, it's really hard to see her in pain. She got moved into a beautiful hospice the other day & I'm already so grateful for the amazing staff and support workers. My Mum told me she may not be here for my 18th birthday in August and that really makes me sad. It makes me sad to think that I will never get to share my milestones in life with my parents. :( I have found that going out with my close friends, even if it's just a drive to Mcdonalds really makes a difference, it takes my mind off things for a bit & I appreciate everything my family and friends do for me. I am much more aware this time that talking about things helps with sadness/grieve, if anyone wants to talk about anything I'm always here for a chat, it helps me and I would love to help someone else out. Thank you x
