What a beautiful daughter you are. Worrying for and admiring your Mum all at once. I don't know how old you are, but you look young in your pic. My daughter is 14 and just lovely. I think she coped really well through my treatment, but only today she was telling me how one of her friend's Dad has been diagnosed with cancer. She told me that she is supporting her friend as she knows just what she is going through with a parent with cancer. She said she would always be there for her friend if she ever needed to talk to anyone about it. I said to my daughter who did she talk to when she needed someone. She looked at me and said you Mum.
So keep talking to your Mum. I had my first mastectomy two years ago, and my second just recently when I had a reconstruction. Your Mum sounds strong, and she will most likely be ok. She will have moments like you do too. It's a great thing that she is surrounded by a loving family. Take care, and remember it's ok to bawl to Dolly Parton from time to time.
Hugs to you and your Mum.
