My deepest condolences to you man, I can't even imagine losing a parent yet. I'm sure you will grow from this experience. It's always a great thing to reach out for support in these tough times as it helps. My prayers are with you as you will be going through the grieving process.

My mom went through Lung Cancer last year and did 5 weeks of radiation therapy. She got through it but b/c she has a very aggressive cancer she is still battling with it and may have to forever. She is in relative good health now but the thing is you never know when it will strike again. In short last year was the roughest year of my life. I've always been a mommas boy. On top of it our dog and cat died 1 week apart during this whole period which was crushing.

We had an in-home hospice for my dad's last few days. It really was a great thing and helped a lot through that time. I'm amazed that people can work in that field. It'd be too depressing for me.


Sorry about your mother. Losing a parent is one of the worst feelings you can experience.

My thoughts are with you. There's nothing that can compare to losing a mother.

I worked for an ambulance company that had a contract with Hospice and I have nothing but good things to say about those people.

I lost my mother in May of 2005 due to cervical cancer. She was 53 and still pretty
young so it was very harsh on the family. At the time I went to school full time and
worked full time and I can easily say it was the toughest time of my life. I just happened to
work at the same hospital where she was in and out of. Coming from the medical field made it
rough very rough on me knowing a good deal of what the doctors were talking about. My mom was one of the strongest people I ve ever met and even now cant bring myself to type details.

Stay strong and spend as much time as you can with her. Everyone deals with these things
different so dont let anyone tell you that you should let your feelings out or keep them in.
Do what you feel you need to do. Just dont engage in any destructive habits if you can.
