Hi Jan, I'm also very sorry for your loss. My mother passed three months ago tomorrow. I never thought I'd make it this far and yet somehow three months have suddenly gone by. I can't say it really gets easier, but you get used to it, or something. As others have suggested - do nothing, put one foot I front of the other, spend time with friends and family just to pass the time. The other thing I did was do something each day - even if it was just the washing - it gave me something else to focus on, and something to structure the endless days. Eat, if you ca, and sleep. Take gentle care of yourself. My thoughts and sympathies re with you. Kerro ... View more

Hi Miss Molly My heart goes out to you. I also cared for my Mum through bowel and then an unrelated lung cancer. I was happy to do it, but it was still tough. My mum passed three months ago tomorrow. Of course you are scared! Who wouldn't be? But you show so much courage doing this. You say you're in a small town so I'm guessing there aren't many services near you? Are you able to contact the cancer support line? They may be able to help you or at least put you in touch with support services/groups near you. Happy to talk here anytime. Take care Kerro ...

Hi Lisa So sorry to hear about your Dad. My other passed three months ago tomorrow. I agree with what others have said - spend as much time with your dad as you can, ask him everything you want to ask (understand if he cannot answer), talk to him, tell him you love him, just sit with him. These will be precious moments. Take care Kerro ... View more
