Sadly, my mom is not going to make it.

[Drunken Irishman]

She has pretty advanced liver cancer and is too sick for treatment. They will confirm the cancer through a biopsy but it looks like I'm going to lose her.

She has been my rock and my friend. I don't think there is a more amazing woman and I really am heart broken right now.

I lover her so much. I am going to miss her more than anything ever.

[applegrove]

1. So sorry. Sending you all vibes.

[hibbing]

17. Lost mine in July

If hospice care offers any kind of grief counseling I highly recommend it. I took a six week zoom bereavement course with the hospice service. It met once a week for six weeks.

My simple advice, don't fight the grief. Hang in there.

Peace

[mtnsnake]

17. That's heartbreaking to hear.

I'm so sorry for your sadness, DI.

[spanone]

24. The world without Momma can be a very strange and awful place.

But we’re here for you if you need an understanding ear.

Looks like she didn’t shy away from giving the presents when you were young.

[Blue_playwright]

120. It is awful...

...and it’s strange and awful for a long time. Be kind to yourself and take care of you.

[JI7]

135. The look on her face shows why parents go through so much to give their kids the "perfect" christmas

gifts .

39. I'm so sorry

[sheshe2]

41. Beautiful picture, DI.

Loving thoughts to you and yours.

[smirkymonkey]

42. I am so sorry, DI.

I can't imagine how heartbroken you must be right now.

My parents, who are 78 and 81 are traveling for the holidays to my sister's home and then my brother's in two different states are taking a risk, especially since my dad had heart surgery this summer and I am preparing myself for the possibility that they may be exposed to Covid and not make it. It will crush me, especially my dad, so I can imagine a little bit about how you must feel.

Even though we can't hang on to them forever, it is never easy. At some point, unless we pre-decease them, we will have to face it. However it it still excruciatingly painful. I am sure it is for you and it will be for me. I wish you all the best and I wish your mom a peaceful transition. I hope you have family and support to get you through this. My heartfelt warm wishes during what must be a very difficult time for you.

[brer cat]

43. I'm very sorry, DI.

[denbot]

44. I am so sorry for you you mom, and all that love her.

[madaboutharry]

45. I'm so sorry.

It is so hard to lose a parent. Peace to your mother, to you, and to all who love her.

[AmericanCanuck]

46. The national motto of Nepal is

जननी जन्म भूमिश्च स्वर्गादपि गरीयसी ||

It means "mother and motherland are superior even to heaven" .. It is a Sanskrit phrase from the epic Ramayana.

I lost my mother 7 years ago and I know what you are feeling.

[BobTheSubgenius]

47. I'm so sorry, DI.

Deepest condolences to you and yours.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

I know, I know!

54. So sorry to hear this, DI

Such beautiful things you wrote about her.

[mvd]

55. Aww, very sorry

I have experience with cancer taking my father. Terrible ordeal. My thoughts are with you and your family.

[Lonestarblue]

56. I'm so sorry. Losing a beloved parent is so very difficult.

Your mom looks like a fun person. You, on the other hand, look like your name of Drunken Irishman—at age 2 no less! Way to go! I truly feel for you and send good wishes your way. When I lost my mom, I felt bereft, but now that a few years have passed I can focus on what she gave me and the joyous memories instead of the grief and loss. I’ll always miss my mom, as you will yours, but she’s in my heart and that’s enough now.

[relayerbob]

57. So very sorry to hear that

Peace to you all

[Fla Dem]

58. No words can ease the sorrow you feel. Just know we're here.

I am so sorry. Sit with her while she’s still aware and tell her how much you love her and what a great mom she has been. I wish I had that chance with my mom.

[Beaverhausen]

59. I'm so sorry

Pardon my french, but fuck cancer.

I lost my mom about 6 years ago but I really feel her with me all the time.

[cry baby]

69. You obviously brought extreme joy to her...it shows in her face

in that photo.

I’m so sorry that she’s sick. I hope you can be with her.

Life is definitely different after one’s mom passes. My mom passed in March. I believe you and I had a brief back and forth about our beloved moms.

My thoughts are with you and your mom and your family.

Damn cancer!

[ProudMNDemocrat]

79. I know exactly what you are going through.

My mother was in the hospital in Reno, Nevada 7 years ago st this time. Stage 4 cancer in both lungs and in her spine. Her lungs were shot and a ventilator was kerping her alive. She also had developed MIRSA as well as Sepsis. We said goodbye to her January 2nd 2013.

May you find comfort knowing your mother's pain will soon end, that she was loved, and that she will never be forgotten. My mother was my rock. She is missed every day.

[handmade34]

80. so sorry...

can't even imagine what you are going through

88. This is such sad news. I'm so very sorry.

Warm hugs to both you and your mom.

[blm]

89. ((DrIr))

[lostnfound]

91. Tell her if you can how lucky you have been and how loved she made you feel.

I’m sorry, so sorry.
I’m sure you have given her much joy. A mom wants to know her kid thinks that she was a great mom. That they felt loved. That they won’t forget.

Everyone passes on eventually. We want our lives to have meaning. Feeling like our kids have accepted the light of life from our hands, that they feel strong enough to go on, that they will remember us fondly — that’s what we want the most.

Savor the remaining time, even though it is painful, it is a gift to be there.

[VOX]

92. Wishing your mom comfort and peace.

And for you, D.I., I wish you strength and the wisdom that you will never feel like an “orphan”— a perception that many of us, regardless of age, experience with the passing of a beloved parent.

All peace and love to you both.

[Moostache]

93. I am terribly sorry to hear of your loss.

I too lost my mother this year - to a combination of cancer, COVID and Sepsis in November. I have found it very difficult to reach closure on this due to the disruptions of the 'normal' grieving process that has been forced on us all due to the restrictions of group activities like wakes, funerals and internments. We have elected to save mom's ashes for a partial internment in the late-spring or summer of 2021 as a result. We are a Catholic family and did have a burial mass for mom, but it only helped a little. The lack of gathering to memorialize mom and share our stories and memories in person instead of on video calls and audio calls only has been hard.

I hate that so many have had this happen to them and so angry that so many more such as yourself are having to go through it now and for the foreseeable future that I can't stand it at times. I want to scream, I want to cry, I want to grab certain people by the throat and demand to know why they feel it is their "right" to not wear masks and to impose themselves on society without regard for the damage done and still happening...

I hope that you are able to draw on a more substantial support system and get through this as fast as possible without having to face down the demons and darkness this has drawn out in me. May the memories of your mother in happier times flood you in this crazy time and may its warmth be enough to sustain you through your personal grieving. And may your mother rest in eternal peace as well.

[cheezmaka]

94. So sorry about your mom....

[area51]

115. I'm so sorry.

[TigressDem]

116. Sorry to hear that.

Looks like you have some memories of good times, though.

Lost my Dad, then my Mom 2 years later. Felt like pieces of my heart just chunked up and fell off. But over time I kept going back to the fact that as much as it hurt meant the love was there to start, so my pain was a way to honor their love and it still sucked, but eventually now it's mostly bittersweet nostalgia. Happy for the good times, wish we'd had more time together.

Hope you get a few more smiles and hugs and have others in your life to be there. Losing parents is tough at any age.

AND at least there is DU.

We will likely be having our last Xmas with my Mom. I know she doesn't want to linger for years but that doesn't make it any easier. I focus on the decades of good times with her as well as what she did for my and my sibling. All we can do at this time is to be there for our Moms, ensure they are well-cared for and pain free.

[usajumpedtheshark]

145. The love of a mother lives on in her children

Even though these words come from tv show script, it was still a comfort to me when my mother passed. I am so sorry for your loss.

[The_REAL_Ecumenist]

146. Oh, D.I., I am SO sorry to read this & wish that there were some way I could wipe the sadness from

your heart. I know the confusion & wondering what you're going to do once your Mom leaves this life because I lost my mother almost 17 years ago in /February & even so, it's always felt to me, her only surviving daughter, as if it just happened yesterday. I know you don't know me from a can of paint & my username but please accept my deep sorrow, concern & sympathy for you, your precious Mom & all of her loved ones & friends.

I know that there are so many people that promise to be a shoulder you can cry on, ( or an ear to listen), but I honestly mean it when I say that if you EVER need someone to talk to who has been there, losing my mom just when I realised I need her, even moreso than when I was a child, I will be here. In the meantime, please know you'll both be in my prayers, that your mam crosses as free of pain, fear & worry as possible & that you're surrounded the love, strength & peace of your friends & family in testament to the sweetness, beauty, kindness & humanity that she imbued into you. Just looking at this beautiful Christmas photo is all the evidence of why & how you turned into the gift that she'll leave behind, (I shed a tear or 2, I must admit)

God bless you, Drunken Irishman & your BEAUTIFUL mother...May she be escorted by legions of angels He wipe away her pain & tears...and restore the beauty of health, giving her a body that works & will never fail her ever again.

Blessings again & I will light a prayer candle for you, your Mom & all of those who'll miss her when she joins her ancestors.

[electric_blue68]

150. So Sorry, DI ! Lost mine 12 yrs ago unexpectedly...

It's so hard when they love you, and you love them.
Even though it is so painful now, we have been blessed with good moms.

Mine went in for what appeared to be a typical (previously) fixable problem that had a at first a different hidden aspect that made things go sideways.

When my mom was getting up in years and bc of health conditions I started thinking this and it helped me cope with the incredible pain after it happened...

"She wouldn't want you to be too sad - for too long"

Other than wishing you Strength, I hope this might be of help to you.

And take in all the support you are receiving here...
loving support really helped me, too.

[Raine]

151. I'm so sorry 💔

I hope her passage is a peaceful one. 🙏 I'm keeping your mother, you and all those who love her in my thoughts. ❤

Obviously because she was your rock she was special. My mom has been my rock too. I know with the loss is joy for having her when you needed her. My most treasured and deepest feelings go out to you. I share your pain. I don't know any life without my mom. Comfort your mom from here on out. She loves you, and that is so good. A good mom is the treasure among gifts. Please tell her that anyone with a good mom loves her forever and will miss her. I love my mom so much.

175. Sorry to hear - ((hugs)) - enjoy the little things

With my parents final days, it's the often mundane things, like a trip to the book store, that I remember most fondly.

Can't do so much in a pandemic, but a drive or looking through old pics. Sharing a cup of coffee becomes special.
