Hi there tori ... l have read of these feelings happening when someone gets the all clear ... we think we should be over the moon and celebrating. . When in some they get those feelings and emotions your mum's having ... then they feel even more guilty for feeling that way ... and it can be a bit of a downward spiral ... it's like the soldier who survives while his mates didn't... they then have problems of coming to terms and they think "why me... why did l survive "  

And trust me no matter what we do, no mater how in control we think we are, in the back of our minds there's always the fear of it getting worse or coming back ... we just learn to live with those thoughts, and try not to let them control us ... these are just my thoughts ...

May be an idea to call McMillan and explain about your mum, they may give you a lot better incite to this then l can ... they are there Mon to Fri ... may help with counselling too ... but with a wonderfull caring daughter like you beside her, she will get there ... so sending you a big virtual hug ...
