Talk to her, let her ramble, learn some family stories and ask her if theres anything she want to get off her chest. It sounds strange but most of us bear the burden of keeping things inside and you can help her gain some peace.

Ive been pretty much where you are only it was my wife.

I am sorry Will. I lost my mom in 2004 from cancer. I still remember the final weeks and the helplessness I felt.

None of us are promised tomorrow. I hope you have opportunity to enjoy meaningful moments in the next few weeks.

I am very sorry for your pain.

be strong and confident ... do what you can for her.

then fall apart. but do not let anyone give you that template garbage and never let them say to you "this isn't about you"

death is hard.

(lost my wife last year to cancer. she was everything to me. i just did what i could, by her side til the end and always told her i wasn't going anywhere that i had no other place to be and i'm sticking by her side no matter. i did it, it was hard as hell to do also.)

but, remember do not let folks tell you how it is. you work along as best as you can, if you think you need a lil help, look for those who you confide in deepest.

strong fronts??? don't kid kidders, ok?

I'm sorry man. My mom died of cancer in 2000. The best thing to do is to be by her side and support her. If you believe in God, then pray for her.

I'm so sorry. As others have said, be with her, as much as you can. Let her know she's loved, and understand you are loved, as well.

I am so sorry to hear this, my mother died from cancer 20 years ago and it was the worst time of my life. I shan’t say how to cope because everyone is different but I do know how you feel. Take Care

I’m so sorry for your sadness. What type of cancer? How did they end up deciding to check for cancer?

let nothing go unsaid that you want to say to her. Be there for her as much as you can. I am very sorry that this is happening to your family.

I lost my father to cancer. The thing was that we all thought he would be okay, and so we had no time to prepare for it. I'm sorry man...

My heart goes to you and your family. I wish you strength in this difficult time.
