DPs mum has been battling cancer for the last 3 years and is at the end of her fight. The hospice called this morning to ask the family to go in, DP is there now with his brothers and I'm at home with baby DD waiting for him to ring. What do I say to him when he does? I offered to go to be with him but he said he'd rather I didn't as it would be too upsetting. We went to see her yesterday and I couldn't stop crying, she has been so lovely and supportive of me, making me feel so welcome in her family and taking on my DS from a previous relationship as one of her own grand children.
I'm so sad myself, but really want to make sure I support DP as I know he will be utterly devastated. How do I help him?
