My mom and I have been speaking for quite some time now and getting along pretty good. The only thing that sometimes gets to me is that she keeps telling me things over and over regarding how it may be the end for her. She says it in so many ways. I listen but cry after we talk. She has cancer and I feel horrible about it, of course. I surely won't tell her that hearing her talk about how her life is over and horrid and all is effecting me. She doesn't know for sure it's the end. She refuses treatment. She tried it briefly and it made her feel real bad so she quit. Her doctor is trying to get her to take the medicine. I've tried but she does what she wants and has always been this way.

I just needed to vent. Every time I see her I think of how these are our last days together. I am sad about it for sure. I feel she needs someone to vent to and I listen but it's hard on me, too. I'm certainly not going to tell her. She must feel comfortable enough. It hurts to think she is going to die....That's all I'm saying.
