Hi all,

my wonderful mum passed away on Thursday morning, only 2 days after being told her bowel was failing. She wasn't in any pain as she had been admitted in to a hospice on Tuesday and they had sorted out her medication. My dad managed to get there with minutes to spare.

mum was diagnosed at stage four, 6 years and 3 months ago. I am so greatful we had that long together after diagnosis. She saw my wedding, my brothers and nearly 4 years of my sons life.

I will miss her terribly.

Thank you for all the advice over the years.

Thank you, it is so true what you say. My mum said she had been waiting for 6 years for this moment but now wasn't ready to go, her lovely nurse said no one is ever truely ready to go.

I'm sorry to hear of your mum's passing. Yes those milestones are so special. I hope those memories can bring you some comfort now and in the future. I miss my mum too, she passed with stomach cancer when I was expecting my youngest daughter, who will be 18 in January. Thinking of you, sending love and condolences.

My heart goes out to you I lost my Mom 3 three years ago yesterday but feel so blessed that I had the time like yourself to be with her and navigate her care she eventually had a fall and never rebounded not OC. Even though I was relieved she was no longer suffering it was one of the hardest journeys loosing my BFF Prayers to you and your Family

it pains me to read this as it brings back memories of Tracy my sister who passed in May.

Thanks to the wonderful staff in Wigan and leigh hospice she went pain free with her sons at her side. We were all at the hospice.

Nothing will ease the pain at the moment but I hope in the passage of time it will feel easier for all of us.

Thoughts are with you and your family.
