Mom passed away on Sunday.

[u/Appropriate_Night432]

My mom was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer in mid june and it spread to her liver in a little over a month. She was very young, only 44 and I myself am 17. She did 3 rounds of chemo and they weren’t effective so she was put on palliative care and passed away on Sunday. I am so heartbroken and don’t know how to keep going without her. She was my best friend and I feel so lost without her and constantly feel like I could’ve done something to help or save her.

What has helped you cope with the loss of someone with pancreatic cancer?

I've been through this agony. Mom died September 28th last year. I'm coming almost to a year of her being gone and the only thing that saves me is honoring her. Just honoring her life and doing the things that I know she would want me to do. That gets me through it's agony. The whole thing was agony fighting the cancer and watching her die was the worst and my dad almost died at the same time he had to be rehabilitated. It's just a shock to the system and I know how you feel darling because my mom was my best friend too. I wish you peace and I pray for you. This is going to be one of the hardest things that you'll ever have to deal with. God bless
