It will be for the last time as there is no further treatment possible other than pain relief. She wants to be at home with all of us so we will do everything we can to make whatever time she has left comfortable and stress free. We will have support from Macmillan and district nurses and should there come a time when we are no longer able to cope, DD has agreed to go into a hospice.

Family support has been wonderful but I have to admit I'm a little scared and very, very sad.

Thinking of you Merlot at this very difficult time. I know it's a very sad time, but spend time doing things you both enjoy and just tell her how much you love her.

thanks So very sorry.

Thank you all again. DD2 and I have been reading all your lovely messages tonight. It's one of those nights when tears don't matter. We're tired and emotional but feeling better than yesterday which was exhausting due to DD's delayed discharge (seven hours) from hospital.

The boys are coping well. They have the support of their girlfriends and their student jobs working in the local pub means they have contact with old school friends and locals who have known their mother since she was at primary school.

Having lost my father at the same age I know it's going to be far tougher than they think but we'll be ready for that.

Thank you all. Your support is very much appreciated.
