Mum.
« on: 25 June 2011, 20:44:35 »
Over the years a few folk on here have shared the loss of parents or loved ones with us all. Despite our ins & outs support & wishes have always been given & in doing so we hope we're doing what little we can to help. I've left a few sympathies & each time it's reminded me my folks are getting on & i'm dreading the phone call.

   Just had it. My brother Phil called. Mum swore Dad to secrecy but he had to tell me so he got Phil to do it. I phoned Dad back & Mum's got cpod or something which restricts the breathing...i've had it explained to me but i'm not with it at the moment but to sum up she's not going to get better. Dad's got one foot out of the door already.

   Phoned work who were great & am popping down to Sussex later next week. Crying, sniffing & feel weak as a kitten.

You have my full sympathy Guy.I can still remember that call which I had been dreading - will never forget it, and the flight over to Ireland afterwards. The only time I havent been eager to get off a plane. Its never easy, no matter what age you are.
Boys (and grown men) always love their mums.
Go and see her as much as you can in the near future mate. I missed my last chance and will always regret it. :y

I know what you're saying. The phone call and period after is a bit of a daze, almost surreal. Thoughts with you matey.

I would add, try to give your dad as much support as possible, it will be him who feels it more than everyone else. :y

All the best to you and your Mum mate.
On the brighter side a workmate was diagnosed with COPD a good few years ago and though he's eventually had to give  up work he seems to be managing quite well.
