Ever so sorry to hear this news

<--- for those who need them xxx

Rawky

I've loved reading the positive news about your mum, and this is a terrible blow.
I know you will look after her ... but don't forget to look after yourself too

Rawky....they may be short....they may be long, but make the most of those moments

Aww Rawky I'm so sorry and shocked, I thought everything was going fine, as Supes said make your time together count and remember to look after yourself aswell....

Rawlky so sorry about your mum you must be going through hell. Take every day as it comes and never shy away from asking for any help you may need. My stepdad was given 6 weeks to live with liver cancer, and he had a great 7 years.Whatever time you have left with your mum it will be special. Love and hugs

Rawky, so sorry to hear your mum's had this news.  Love to her and you.

Lost my ma to this disease when I was a kid, it takes people too young, and it's a cruel disease for a woman.

Oh, and stick around RR, plenty of lovely people here who think a lot of you x

Nowhere like here when you need a bit of support Rawky - so spend time with your Mum and cherish her but come back when you need to.

And Pengy - didn't know.

Rawky I am soooooooo sorry to hear this - I have followed this from your first post  - I am thinking of you - hope you keep coming here so we can keep giving you support
lots of

Pengy.....

Ah Rawky... I hadn't seen any updates from you for a while and I was hoping your Mum was ok.   It's all been said, take each day as it comes, the human spirit has suprised many a doctor, you just never know.    Don't think it terms of how long, just of now and don't leave anything unsaid.   Love to you, your Mum and all involved. 

theres nothing i can add to whats been said Rawky, but stay around theres some lovely people here who can probably give you good advice and make you smile sometimes. stay positive hun and take care. big hugs. thinking of you.

Rawky, I'm so sorry.  I hope the posts about people beating the odds are giving you a bit of hope.

Doctor's don't know--they can only guess.

Nice post Lori

I'm so sorry to hear your sad news Rawky.   As the others say, stick around as this place can be a great help.

No idea what I can say to make you feel better Rawky

Loads of positive responses on here though.......Take heart from them

Pengy

Oh Rawky... so very sorry about this.  Just remember that while you're having to deal with it for your Mum so she doesn't get upset about how you're dealing with it... that there are folk here who will give you a bit of TLC too, because you might not think it, but you will need it. Just come here and tell us whatever is chewing you up at any moment you need to.
Much love to your Mum and to you... a forum friend of all of us, I think.

aww Rawky.. really sorry to hear that. Kaffy's absolutely right in what she says up there ^ .. don't know what to add except sending a big awkward West-of-Scotland style clumsy virtual hug to you and your mum.

ohhh.. and don't go vanishing, eh?

Yes, what Xochi said.

I'm crap with words, especially in these situations, but I'll always leave a hug and agree with others. 

Dear Rawky I feel so much pain for you, my husband died at 54 although it wasnt cancer it was so quick I was devastated,and only last year my lovely Brother died from this horrible disease, my Sisters and I were with him throughout his illness we loved him so much.. My thoughts are with you..X

elkie.

Thanks Blizzie, you are a diamond ..X

Elkie, I've spent so long crying today, what with this thread and Sports Relief, and my son's swimming teacher, who is doing a parachute jump in memory of her husband, who always dreamed of doing one for charity, but died last year.

She told me to cherish my husband, which is hard to remember sometimes , but I've been so lucky in my life and I should always remember that.

Rawky,
I'm so sorry I've only just seen this thread, my heart goes out to you, but you will be able to make every moment special. My Mum threatened her consultant with knee capping if he told me how serious her condition was. I would have done so much and I never knew or got the chance. My mum pretended everything was going to be OK right up to the end. Rawky please don't leave this forum, there are so many lovely people here.

For you and your Mum.

Dear Blizzie stay as as lovely and comical as you are ...people like me need you.on a serious note

elkie, I can only be me.

Much as it may vex me, sometimes!

Blizzie......XXX

me too - worrying about 'stuff'.  Feel bad for feeling bad when I then read about Rawky & his mum...   

today (well yesterday now)... has not been a good one!

I really feel your pain , i lost my mom to cancer last june she was 52 and i was 26, the only thing thats different is i didnt get the precious time thats been given to you. It may not feel like it and your mom must be scared, but you have the  chance to ask her things you always wanted and tell her just how much you love her.

Right now you must be devastated the only advice i can pass on (bestowed on me by someone on this very forum but i didnt get the chance to put it into practice) is to treasure every moment you still have her and try to stay strong, it must be so hard but you will look back and cherish these memories if you let them be good ones, for her sake as much as your own. really hope she makes the doctors out to liars

suchsad news rawky  for you and your mum xx

I thought Jenstar's post above said some very important things.  We are all with you at this time.  Please let us help. 

I'm so sorry to read your sad news Rawky. Like others have said treasure what time you have left with her and tell how what you feel. I can only imagine what you are going through. I hope she's not in any pain. Hugs

Such sad news for you and your mum Rawky. There's nothing you can say that makes you feel better, all I can do is add to what the others have said.  Cherish every moment together and make some wonderful memories together.   tp you both ... and to the others who have suffered in this thread too ... such sad stories

Rawky ........that is such sad news. I'm a similar age to your mum and have followed her progress on here over the past couple of years. Bearing that you hadn't bought it up for a while I assumed she was doing well.. I'm truly gutted for you and your mum but ......never say never - keep strong and make the most of every moment. So very sorry .....thinking of you

Rawky, I am truly sorry to hear your sad news. As others have said, treasure the time you have left together, and let your mum know how much you love her.
Please stay on the forum, there are lots of lovely people here who will support you through this very difficult time.

Dave, I really am so very sorry to read this sad news. The last update was so positive I so hope that her own Oncologist has a different prognosis.

I was a similar age to you when my Mum passed over from the evil cancer and she was just 53. I felt that she and I had both been 'cheated' by her early death......life really is unfair

Make sure that you and your Mum love each other just as much as you can over the next few months. I will often think of you both and will come looking for news.

You can't leave the forum....we have all been 'with' you over the last few years with this and it seems like many of us wan't to give support to both you and your Mum

My love to you both xxx

Just seen this Pengy

rawky  you and your mother are in my thoughts
