Thank you both, it means a lot to know other's care,I feel so helpless as what can one do, as I told my son I am glad she has you there to help her through the tough time ahead and to give her lots of cuddles,yes my heart aches for her too, she is a lovely girl (my son sure struck gold when he met her)who does not deserve more heartache,the only comfort is knowing Nana has lived a long life and hopefully a good one, she is in her eighties i believe, but still it hurts a lot just the same doesn't it?
