My mother was the best person I knew and so far still the best person I know. Mum was diagnosed with lung cancer in February 2009 and died in May 2009. She knew there was something wrong with her for months and months and trip after trip to the doctors resulted in miss diagnosis after miss diagnosis. Eventually she was told it was lung cancer and it was too late to do anything about it. She received some chemo but this made her worse and she died at home with her loved ones around her. Mum made a difference to so many peoples lives and she is sorely missed by everyone who knew her. Mum was a giving person, she gave so much to so many people and she didn't ever expect anything in return. As her daughter, I intend to make her proud. I intend to have my future babies grow up knowing what a wonderful grandmother they had and I intend to raise money for lung cancer research so others do not have to go through the inconceivable torture of losing someone so precious and dear to them.
