Unfortunately, this is true...

My Mum and sister have gone to my Nans this weekend. Leaving me with Noah and Paul (brother and stepdad) You see my Nan has terminal cancer, and has moved into a hospice today. We honestly don't know if she will make it till Christmas. I didn't know she had cancer, I knew she had ill been very ill over the past 3 years but I had no idea it was cancer. She has had 2 blood clots and a operation on her stomach. I only found out 4 months ago. I probably should of guessed with the trip to centerparks we all took, the very frequent trips to her house and mums sadness. Since then she has started a new set of chemotherapy, that is stronger... It made her lose her hair, we have sat with her showing us her wig, with her sitting and sleeping, her fragile frame playing with Noah on his first birthday (18th Nov) and now apparently she isn't strong enough to even text more than a couple of words. She deteriorated so fast. And I honestly hope we can share Christmas with her this year.

Cancer is a horrible, horrible thing. And to be honest it is worth the tears compared to the trivial, attention seeking arguments that people waste their time over, cancer makes you see things clearer, makes you see the bigger picture. I wish no-one had to go through what my mum is going through. To anyone who has experienced this I wish for you this Christmas...

My nan is a strong, inspirational person who has achieved so much. Love you Nan

Thank you, for listening/reading that. I needed to let it out... ~O xxx
