Thanks Frostling, your advice is very good, it could become very depressing if I just focussed on that side of things and maybe cause unnecessary anxieties, I will have a look at a few things per your suggestion and then try and focus on making these last few months count. Thanks again .

Hi, I am in opposite boat, I have immigrated and my mom lives a 17 hr flight away and I get depressed over the fact that I can't be there. I have found that having something to look forward to for both of us has helped, and I am thinking that is what you need. I told my mom I don't want us to live to die, if you know what I mean, plan something you can do together when her round of treatment is over, then I think you live to live. Love, RealGirl

Lately I am feeling more and more distressed over the unknown. My mom has terminal colon cancer that has spread to pelvic lining. The last 3 years has had its ups and downs but she is doing ok. She has had colon surgery and many many rounds of chemo. She has only lost her hair in this last week and suddenly perspiring much more than normal. I have asked the doctor what kind of symptoms I can expect over next few months given that he has indicated that we will be lucky if we have 1 year, however he has been a bit evasive but I need real answers, it is becoming all consuming for me, the need to know. I feel that l can be better prepared and stronger for her if I know what's coming. Can anyone share the real symptoms in last year of life? All Google gives me is the final hours of death, which is not what I am after. Are there others who worry about This?
