My mum was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer last year. She's been so strong and stoic through the last 12 months of treatment. Lately though she seems more tired and frail. I've been trying so hard to cope but family dynamics are a bit tricky at the moment and it's feeling very overwhelming at the moment. She is my best friend I'm feeling so scared at the thought of her not been around. I'm terrified I won't cope without her.
