My mother is dying of breast cancer and I am having trouble coping

My mother is dying of breast cancer and I am having trouble coping?
My mother has been battling breast cancer for two years and looks like she will not make it through next week. I have three older sisters and one younger brother. We all love her dearly but we all are having trouble even thinking about losing her. I know Yahoo Answers is not the place to be asking for coping tips but I really would appreciate some help. Thank you very much and Godbless. P.S- I'm 15

I am so sorry. The best advise I can give is to spend all the time you possibly can with her and make sure you tell her how much you love, appreciate, and care for her. Do everything for her. Also consider seeing a counselor to talk about all of this, I've heard grief counselors really help. I know it's hard in such times of sadness, but (if you believe in God) do not abandon him as he will always be with you. You're family is going to be there throughout this so keep them close. Don't be afraid to cry. It helps so much to get your emotions out instead of keeping them all bottled in. Also since it seems breast cancer is hereditary, please get yourself checked reguarly as an adult. Stay strong. I will be praying for you.

You have to remind yourself that GOD can take her physically, but the memories of your mother will always be inputed in your mind. Make sure you stay strong for your siblings and specially you mother. Please take care of yourself and make sure you stay strong. I will Hope and pray that everything goes well for your mom and family.................

Oh my gosh . . . There are few words that I can really say...because that must be the most horrible experience. There really isn't much that you can do...just spend these last days with her, telling her how much you love her and everything..try to remember her happy and try to stay happy the last days...also count on the rest of your family. your father, your sisters and brother..think that you are not left totally alone..you still have a family..but always no matter what, remember your mother being a part of it.. Also think that she wouldnt want to see you this way...she only wishes the best for you..think that if she wasn't able to have the life she always wished for, then she wants for you to live happy...she wants for you to make it..she wants you to be happy. xoxoxo's
