Mothers
As mothers we always want to kiss it and make things better. We learn, though, that that is not always possible. Being physically away from your daughter doesn't mean you can't be there for her. Ask her if there is anything you can do like research treatments or other resources. Let her know that you will always be willing to talk or email. At the same time, remember that she may not feel up to that at times. Support her and her family as you always have. I know that this is very hard. Although she is an adult, she is still your baby. You do need to know that even if you were there, you really couldn't change the diagnosis. Also, it's important to remember that she is an adult. She and her husband get to decide on treatment options, etc. -
