How do I cope?
My mum has stage IV breast cancer. It is extremely bad and she is undergoing chemo and radiation therapy. To my knowledge she has not been given, or asked, the doctor how much time she has left. Obviously though her time is limited, whether it be 1, 2, 3 or more years.
I just dont know how I am going to be able to cope without her. She is my best friend in the world, and the best mum anyone could ever hope for. We talk every day and see each other almost every day. She is such a big part of my life and I just can't imagine her not being here anymore.
The thought of never ever seeing her again, of not having her just a phone call away, if i want to ask her something or laugh with her or just talk about nothing with her - it kills me and I am so scared. I am so scared that I wont be able to cope. I am so scared that I will be on this earth without her longer than I have been here with her.
I dont know what to do. I just can't bare it. I cant believe I wont see her again Additional Details I am 25 and married with two kids. That does not mean that I cannot still be close to my Mum. A few people have suggested this, although one only on this question and I really don't understand why I should be any less close to my parents just because I am married. It makes it all the more worse doesn't it? Because she is not only leaving my life, she is leaving my kids lives too. My kids who absolutely adore her. I think its a wonderful thing that I am still as close, if not closer to my Mum than I was before I married and had children
give her echinecea it will really help her its a cancer fighter herb. get her too take it immediately it will do alot to help her..echinecea/goldenseal may God bless her with this herb............

You don't say your age but I am thinking you are in your 20s.. I was close to my Mom too but as I married and had my own family I wasn't as close and we moved around a lot so that helped us both move forward and not stay in the same place.
You can live without your Mom and you must do so for her sake. She brought you into this world to be her future. You cannot be frightened of life just because she is no longer a phone call away. If you believe in an afterlife you will see her again, you must learn now to depend on yourself and other people for support; it will be much easier for you later on if you start now.

I am so sorry to hear about your mum. That is really sad. Breast cancer affects so many lives. I'm sorry that it is so advanced. My aunts cancer was also very advanced but I am happy to say that she is still with us. She doesn't dwell on when she might die but on enjoying each day that she is given on this earth. I feel sad for you. What you said really touched my heart. I lost my dad in September. We were so close. I was daddy's little girl. He died at the age of 66 from a massive heart attack. There was no warning. No time to say good-bye. I don't know if it's better if it's quick or if you have time to say good-bye. It's beautiful that you think so highly of her. I'm not close to my mom so I can't relate. You need to be supportive of her and be positive for her. She wouldn't want you to be sad and I know it's really hard. Of course you can be as close to her now as before you got married. Those feelings should never change. Try and not dwell on the fact that she may have a short time to live. Just take each day as it comes and be there for her. I miss my dad but I don't dwell on how he died but on how he lived. It will be okay. Lean on other family members for support and just be there for your mom because she really needs you right now. Be strong for her.

am so sorry to hear, my mum also died from cancer it'll be 7 years on Thursday i was 23 years old it was very hard as i was her full time carer but i also felt i gave my mum some thing back as she brought me up so well so i made her as comfortable as i possibly could she was my rock and i found losing her very hard as you will too things do get a little easier i still get bad days but it gets to the stage of instead of picturing your mum deteriorating you get the the good times in your head instead and you will be able to laugh at thing you did together instead of getting sad, me and my mum still laughed right till the day came to say goodbye, i wish you all the best i know its hard but stay strong and keep smiling, you will go through sadness and anger about her leaving you but she will always be there she will still be your rock when she has passed over good luck honey, xxx

This is my biggest fear as a mother with cancer. I have stage four breast cancer to the bones.
My daughter is only three years old so I constantly worry.
Many people are living longer lives with cancer now than ever before. I have met some woman who have lived with cancer for 10 -20 years its amazing. I pray that I am lucky enough to be another long living survivor.
Talk to your mom every chance you get. I have kept a journal for my daughter and started scrap books. I have made everyday a specail day. I sometimes do simple little surveys just to think of what questions she might have just to make sure I have them answered for her.
Every chance I get I try to make sure that I have carved something deep into memories because truelly memories are the best
