It will not be long now.

I lay on my mothers bed last night and carried on being as casual as you like, shes not suffering, pain is being managed wonderfully. Tom has been by her side since the very beginning, watching over her. She is just waiting now, her body is getting tired, and she's finding it very hard to talk. Her chest is slowly failing her, and its all so inevitable. Its time to face death once again, in the hope that it will be gentle and welcoming for my wonderful mum......
