[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly watching the decline and the person you love get consumed by something like cancer is worse than the actual death.[/quote] This is somewhat true in my experience, and grieving in anticipation did a lot of the heavy lifting for me. Less than a year in, though, I still find that I have to struggle not to think about the decline and how my mom suffered at the end. I have 56 years of happy memories with her, and I have to try hard to focus on those rather than on the terrible year that preceded her death. It's taking baby steps, but I'm making progress.[/quote]
