My Mum took a turn for the worse yesterday.

I've spent all night by her bed, just come home for a few hours rest, a shower, and some food. The doctors say there is no hope, they are doing what they can to make her comfortable, but it is just a matter of time.

I know some of you have met my Mum a few times, she really loved watching the strongman and strongwoman contests she has been to.

I know she is going to a place where there is no more pain, but being selfish for a minute I don't know what I'm going to do without her.

You will miss her Colin but you have to do what your mum wanted for you.
When I last spoke to her on the phone she told me how she was so very very pleased you found this sport and the friends you have made through it. Keep yourself active and as hard as it is you need to keep making your mum proud with the life you now go on to lead. It's been a hard year for you Colin

It's not easy Colin I lost my mum to Cancer also and it's so very sad and happens so quickly but you will get through it. She will always be in your heart. Call if you need to talk Colin. Take care mate

I can't believe it Colin i really can't,just don't what to say,i read your post with a tear in my eye and i only met her a few times over the last 3 years so i think that says a lot.Every time i've met her she came accross as a happy,friendly easy going person.Miracles can happen and i hope it does as you and your family deserve one.
Be strong Colin,you have many friends who will be there for you.

I can't imagine what you're going through right now, Colin and you have all my condolences for what this must take out of you.

Stay strong, stay healthy and we're all here to vent any time you need it.

Mum is heavilly sedated and is sleeping.

Thanks for all your words of support, they really mean alot to me right now.

I feel very low, but I'll get through this. I owe it to my Mum and Dad to make the best of things and build a new life for myself. It is going to be a struggle, but I'll get there.

Colin,
For your Mom, remember what she has tought you from youth to now; pass them on to everyone you meet. For if you don't they will die with you. That is what will make the future more eaiser...

For yourself, Heres a couple thoughts;
"Though times never last, Tough people do."
and
"Your bones will be Iron and Bronze and In your days, so shall your Strength be."

May God Bless my Friend and I'll carry your situation in my Heart and in my training!!!

Horrible to hear Colin, stay with her, and let her know how appreciative for all the love and support she's given you, let her know that she was a great mother and she has nothing to regret.

I've been doing exactly that Jesse.

My biggest regret when my father died was that I never got the chance to say the things I wanted to say to him. I've made sure to let Mum know how grateful I am for all she has done for me, and how much I love her.

Although seeing her like this is very hard, at least we have had a chance to say the important things to each other.
