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.

Dear Merlot I wish that you will still be able to smile and hold your darling daughter close.
You will have to draw on your inner strength to cope and support your family.

Oh Merlot - how sad flowers

Merlot my heart goes out to you.
We went through exactly the same situation as you three years ago. My daughter wanted to come home to die. We nursed her for two weeks between us and the Macmillan Nurses coming in each night.
Her children were around her , and one of us was by her side until she died.
You will find the strength to cope, and its the last loving thing you can do for her.
God bless you all.

I filled up reading your post merlotgran
Life is cruel sometimes and some families have more than their share of heartbreak.
I just cannot imagine the pain you must have.
