I remember how this feels. When I was told my mum had the worst kind of cancer she could possibly have had - fast growing no treatment dead in months. I ran. I went out and ran and ran and ran. I came home utterly spent. I live in Germany and spent a lot of time going over to the uk and living with mum, doing everything I could to soak every moment up and heal every possible rift and care for her as much as I possibly could. She went downhill very quickly, and died with me holding her hand this April. I am still very deeply in grief and if I can support you on this shocking and painful journey - please do just message me - it helps to not feel alone.

I was scared to read this Pipp, scared of reliving the emotional upheaval of losing a loved one. I wish I could say 'do this or do that, it helps...' it doesn't, nothing helps and nothing matters - you know how terribly sorry I am and how sad lovely - I'm here, you know already - I send you courage and prayers for gentle transitions for everyone, my thoughts and my love xxxx

Dear Pipp, there is no consolation to offer in times such as these to ease the shock and sorrow, no consolation but the love that you share.

Holding you and yoyr mum and your family so close in my heart and with tenderness. With love, Renée
