THAT "C" WORD


Tomorrow my mum starts her chemotherapy treatment. I am flying down today to spend the next week with her and look after her. She is positive and says she is not going to be sick. If only this were true but I will not be the one to burst her bubble. I will be there for her, to soothe her, to comfort her, to hold her, to cry with her, to feed her, to shave her head when her hair starts to fall out and I will laugh with her, take her mind off it, encourage her, love her, and just simply be there for her. I don't know what this ride has in store for her, let alone me and my sister but we will make it through - we always do!
