He´s Back For Good
Cancer. He´ll win again.
Crossword puzzles, my Mum does them to keep her mind fit.
About three weeks ago she mentioned a "swelling" on her head. I asked, did you fall?
Nope. Was Mr Cancer telling he´s back, we know now. Oh, he makes a visit to her liver, too.
And those puzzles? She found she had put in some really dumb stuff at times...
Ingo picked these flowers for her. He didn´t join me, he can´t see a hospitel from the inside anymore.
Ha. Can I???
I can, I have to. And it´s Hannover again. Ha. I recognised that place at once :-(
Mum managed to get down to 37 kg. She´s 1,54m or such.
Why?
Heck, who knows.
Guess she didn´t want to live for some years now.
Little Niece is her only joy, how sad is that. But she doesn´t care to live to see her on her first day of school or such.
With only skin an bones... docs can do nothing. They cannot operate.
I asked if they can give her calories intravenously - let´s see.
I have little hope.
Cancer takes my parents away.
Bro and I are alone soon. Can you imagine this?
I know... I´m nearly 40. But I still feel like a kid when it comes to my Mum.
We all met when my Grandma celebrated another Birthday. She had 7 kids, with 5 living in Germany, 2 in Switzerland.
When she died they met again. Then on Bro´s wedding. Maybe next time...
Well, we just lost contact. Sad...
This is what Ingo got for me - for free - he told the "flower-woman" his story of being nearly dead and that this one goes to hospital as well.
Mum takes it. Guess she won´t fight.
Cancer. I so do hate you.
You always win.

I know the death of your parents isn't so much about you but them instead. It's still sad to lose both parents, to the same disease, at such a young age. I can't imagine it myself. Be strong, if not for yourself but for your mum. I'm sure she hates the way life is but deep down must appreciate the effort that you put in. Even if she has no desire to live anymore. I hope she is well cared for and doesn't suffer unnecessarily.
Thanks, Hammy.
Docs make sure these days people don´t suffer body-wise.
I´ll call her in two hours and visit on Tuesday.
It´s all like a bad dream. Just you don´t wake up from it.
Sorry to hear about your mum xxx
So sorry to hear this. (((hugs)))

So sorry, Iris. A friend of mine lost both her parents by the time she was 29. It is just so so awful.
Cancer doesn't always win, but it is a bastard.
Love and prayers to you, your mum and all your family xoxo
Ugh, I hate cancer too. I'm so sorry. Sometimes bodies have just had enough and they don't have the power to fight any longer. Soak up the last moments and hold them with you forever.
Thanks everybody. I feel so... tired and sad. And afraid. And I don´t want to let go.
They start chemotherapy - maybe there is hope?
