My mum passed away 6 weeks ago. She had lung cancer which had spread to her spine. She was only diagnosed in June, and even though she was stage three we thought she would have a couple of years. Sadly following surgery (which was aborted) to remove the cancer , she had one complication and set back after another. This meant that she missed out on radiotherapy and chemo. It's only over the last few days that it has hit me that she is gone. I was so close to my mum, I saw her every day, even before she was ill. We were joined together at the hip, although we squabbled a lot. She had an amazing bond with my children too and they are struggling without her. I don't know what to do now she's gone. I feel completely lost without her. There's now a massive void in my life. I don't know how I will ever get over it, the pain and grief is all consuming. I just want my mum
