Hi to all reading this.
I dont know how I am finding the strength to write this, my mum died just over 16 hours ago of gall bladder cancer at the age of 63. She went into hospital on 9th March this year to have gallstones removed but they found that the whole gall bladder was basically infested with a tumour which was pressing against the liver. The doctors said the cancer was inoperable and put my mum on what was intended to be a 13 week course of chemo.
My mum only managed to get through 5 of the sessions, she was having no quality of life to speak of at all and it was decided to stop the chemo.
In the past few days my mum deteriorated at a frightening rate, I dont think she wanted to live anymore. When I last saw my dear mother alive yesterday I could see that it would not be more than a few days before the end came...so it was totally devastating to learn this morning that she had been taken by this wicked disease.
I feel absolutely shattered that my mother has gone....what else is there to say?
