Drunken Irishman

(34,857 posts)
Tue Dec 22, 2020, 09:33 PM Dec 2020

Sadly, my mom is not going to make it. [View all]

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.
