Mum always knows everything!

I am newly diagnosed and dread telling my parents.  They are elderly and yes it will be a shock.  But....my mum knows everything and will no doubt tell me what I have done wrong, what I need to do, etc.  I am dreading telling her.  

I know she will also be on my doorstop every day and on the phone which I don't want.  

How do I deal with this?

    so pleased to read that your Mum's reaction was better than you expected.  Mum's are so important in our lives and for those of us that have lost their Mum mine is still in my thoughts and I feel she is watching over me and every now and then I can hear her say c'mon buckle up, you'll be fine!
    Take care
