Ah, my young friend.
Sounds like she saw what she needed to see before leaving you...on angel's wings, I have no doubt.

Sad but dignified.
I attended another funeral on Friday and your story serves to illustrate the options available to your family that are denied us in America.
R.I.P. to your Mom and Ed.

Sorry to hear that your mom has all those different types of cancer. It brought tears to my eyes upon reading it.
Back on topic,
Yes, I've had a family member die because of cancer. It was my grandfather. My life changed ever since then.

Both my granddads and a grandmother have passed away, all due to cancer. It wasn't too hard for me because the disease was slow and they all lived with it for so long, and were active and otherwise normal for a good number of years with it. I accepted when they passed on because the disease had made them sicker and sicker so slowly that it felt like the expected 'next stage'. I miss them, but the cancer was slow enough that there was little shock for me.

If you don't mind, how old are you, TrueSounds?

Sorry to hear of your loss Zed , never had the misfortune of watching a loved one die of the big C .
Was brutal watching a beloved aunt slowly succumb to M.S. , over 20 years I and her family had to watch her suffer . Would n't wish that on anyone , would think that given a choice she would have liked to have the dignity your mom was allowed at the end , much sooner .

you think what yes?
well my prayers go out to you and your family, I lost a good number of relatives because of cancer and each death was very different truly the worst was my 11 year old cousin who died from brain cancer in 1973 but his memory still lives within me,I will never ever forget him. my other relatives that died where from 52 to 68 years old 1 uncle pancreatic cancer,1 aunt started with a mole removal, 1 godmother colon cancer 4 cousins to liver cancer but at least even though I miss them all, they did have a chance to live and raise families unlike my 11 year old cousin. my father also had cancer of the jaw and was diagnosed October 4th 2009 and had a 17 hour surgery on Dec 10 2009(damn insurance to so long to ok anything) at UCLA hospital to remove the cancer and reconstruct his jaw as of today he's healing but now they found more lumps that appear to be cancer in his lymph nodes on the left side of his face,the doctors are going to start his chemo and radiation treatment this week, my poor oldman has been through hell.
just got bad news today my dad now has it in his lungs now.......the doctors say its just a matter of time now...
be well my friend
