venting Mom passed away on Sunday.

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?

Sending you love and healing, stay close to your sister and you both will get through it. My own sister was diagnosed in July and she is deciding not to do any treatment so, I'm likely about to go through something similar. Life is just so precious and all we can do is just survive sometimes.....take care of yourself, that is important too

I am sending you so much love. Please spend as much time as you possibly can with your sister and talk to her. My mom always wanted us to talk to her or just hear our voices before she passed.
