my best friend died of cancer at 23 we planned to get married. It has been almost 20 yrs. now. I also had a step father who died of cancer - neither had a chance to recover. We made life great joyful and fun and enjoyed every moment. It's hard - but you need to let them know it's ok to go - they are worrying about you - and even though you may not want to let go - they will be at peace and without pain.

Try to envision if you were the terminally ill person what you would want those around you to do. I would try to keep life as normal as possible and treat them as if they will continue on but also accepting the fact that they won't. Try to focus on all the positive things in their lives and make some of these last days equally as memorable. Try not to make their dying as the end but a life that will continue when you see each other again. Answered by GoodscoutAge : 31 1 month ago Edit Delete

Sometimes I think in order to let go, it is first to give your loved one permission to die. They do not want to go either, but if you said it is OK, that the memories you have together will be everlasting, you are giving them permission as well as helping yourself letting them go. You will find strength in helping your dying loved one. It is more than likely "the" most difficult responsibility that you will ever have in giving permission to a loved one to die and leave for another world. You will be able to let go because of your love and caring for this person. Answered by WomanAge : 37 1 month ago Edit Delete
