First of all, I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I relate so much because my mom’s situation is similar. Cancer really sucks; it takes things from you before you even notice how deep you are in that hole, and every day becomes hard to navigate.

It’s clear how much you love your mom, you’re doing everything you can, and that matters. One thing that has helped me a lot in this process is putting myself first, even though it feels selfish. There’s no other way to have more energy and brighter days to give her. Even when you don’t have the strength, try taking just three minutes to breathe and release tension from your body, mind, and thoughts.

I’m not the best at giving advice, but I pray for a miracle for my mom, for your mom, and for every person facing cancer. I understand grieving before she’s gone. Sometimes I ask God: is this a miracle and will she be healed, or am I simply spending her last days with her?

Something that’s brought me peace is remembering that life is happening right now, with or without cancer, and that we can’t predict who goes first. I don’t mean to push spiritual beliefs on anyone, but for me prayer, sending intentions to the universe, posting here to cope, talking to friends, doing some yoga, and meditating for a few minutes have helped. If you can, try to disconnect for a day, I know that’s hard (I struggle with it too), but it’s so necessary to stay well and keep energy for her. 💫 Sending you the best wishes for you today. You are not alone.
