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.

How very hard for you - wanting her to stay, but knowing that this fight cannot continue. Thank goodness for the pain killers and sedatives and the specialist hospice carers. And indeed for the love that is surrounding her. flowers
