I am writing on this post in a hope that it may help me to process my grief, my pain. My beautiful daughter, aged 37, has been diagnosed with stage 3 brain cancer, that will shorten her life. She has two children aged 5yrs and 2yrs. Her husband is also a wonderful man. Our friends and family are all supporting us and our daughter with so much love and generosity and kindness. But, they are not on this nightmare journey of losing one of their own children. I want to take it from her. She has her life ahead of her. Her children. How do I comfort her knowing she will die before her time? And how I comfort her when she is suffering everyday as she endures radiation and chemo? And how do I comfort her!! There isn’t really anything I can do! This is my pain. We aren’t the only family suffering through a journey that is similar . I just don’t know how to get through it.
