[quote=Anonymous]So, I've never had a relationship with my mother. My parents seperated when I was 6 (24 years ago) and I lived with my dad. As a child I only saw her 1x a year, sometimes less, and the visit was only a couple of hours at best. As an adult I haven't seen her in 7 years now, but we email and I send her pics a few times a year. I got an email from her yesterday saying she has cancer and has had multiple surgeries to try to remove it including a radical hysterectomy, and others which were unsuccessful at removing the cancer. She is doing chemo now. I am just feeling numb. I don't know what is expected of me in this situation. I lost my dad to cancer 2 years ago and was right by his side till the end, but I know that's not what I should do this time. She lives across the country, should I go see her? She didn't ask me to, and I don't know if she'd even want me to. I'm sure it's a dumb question, but what is expected of me?[/quote]
