Thank you all lovely warriors & fighters. Each of your messages has made it easier. Today amidst tears i told her i am painfully going to take her to hospital admission if she can continue pulling not eating since last week Thursdays, & after i walked away crying she actually asked for something to eat.. i am glad.

I remember being stroppy and thinking what's the point ,I refused to get out if bed to go for chemo several times ,my husband dragged me out and marched me into the bathroom ,I laugh about it now and I'm glad he did it, perhaps your mum feels so awful physically and emotionally that she is thinking what's the point ,so pleased you've had a small breakthrough .Sending love.
