I can't say i know how you feel but i have a pretty good idea. i had a cousin who died of cancer... she was only 17. She always said that she wanted to go before it became too painful. On the day of her passing i managed to smile with the thought that she was in a better place free of her suffering. I still miss her, even though i speak to her every night. I recall her face and share a piece of my day with her. Even though she died, she is still very much alive in my heart and thoughts.
I hope this has helped.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I know these are hard times for you Dan, after all, I''ve lost my mother to cancer as well, but I'm glad you are able to take comfort in smaller things and hopes.
After your mother dies, remember her with love, and do not be afraid to cry. It's all I can offer, but for my support and prayers.

You and your family are in my thoughts

Dear Dan,

I pray that your mom does not suffer, and for you and your family's strength in this very difficult time. My heart and spirit goes out to you, my friend.

Just wanted to keep you updated on how everything is going:

Yesterday she had a VERY bad day, and cried saying "I know I'm going to die now" but we calmed her down, and we have given her even stronger meds, but that, along with 3 Oxy-Contin (100mg) and she is still moaning. Today lot's of people came by, and we all stayed with her. The Minister gave her 'last rites' just incase something happens tonight. She is sleeping now-still moaning/grunting, but sleeping better..

Since yesterday she has been really incoherent.. closed eyes, saying things from her past, singing. But she is resting, atleast she isn't suffering. She will be in a better place soon, and I know that-she is very religious and always read her bible and prayer book.

It's hard guys, but I'm doing ok, Donna and my Sister are here, we're taking care of her.

She may pass soon (maybe even tomorrow morning) but you can't tell with cancer. it's so horrible.

I'm glad you guys are here too, I'll need ya!



Praying for you Dan.
