I am hoping to find another who understands how I am feeling.
I take such pleasure in counting down our family trips to Disney. We have visited as a family of 5 in 2003 and 2006. On our last visit in May, DH said those special words "next time". I had eagerly been researching a stay at AKL and then a DCL cruise for 2008. Reading these boards, planning and dreaming about our next trip become my hobby.
Now my wonderful, loving, never-can-be-replaced mom had been diagnosed with stage IV uterine cancer which has spread to her lungs. She has been given 1 to 2 years with treatment. She doesn't know if she wants to go through chemo.
I am a wreck.
It feels terrible to me to be planning a visit to WDW for 2008. I feel as if am counting down to her death. Thinking about WDW is such an escape for me from the everydays of life but I feel so wrong anticipating the future when she most likely won't be around.
Make sense?
Thanks for listening.
