[Serious] Ask a Caregiver for a Dying Parent
#1
Ask a Caregiver for a Dying Parent
Hey, guys. Some of you may already know this, but my mother is currently dying from Stage 4 esophageal cancer with multiple distant metastases. I am currently her primary caregiver, which has been one of the more important experiences of my life. Doing this, I realize how many other people have to do it. I also realize that most of us spend our whole lives afraid of our parents' mortality because we know we will lose them one day. So, I thought I'd open up to people about what it's like, in case they have any questions about the process, are going through it themselves or think they will be in my position one day. I can also answer some cancer treatment questions from the perspective of a caregiver/family member.

Please bear in mind that answering these questions might be harder than I anticipated, so I'll let you know if I'm not up for it anymore.
