It is hard...very hard. A small bit of advice...my wife of 51 years passed 11 months ago...brain cancer and bedridden. As we all watched the deterioration over a year I was her sole caregiver until I finally let a professional take over for the last few months. My kids and her dear friends were devastated and determined that I would get all the support they could muster...and they did. But you know, the support finally became a nightmare. I could not become myself again because they were in the way. In retrospect, I think that is why many people die soon after a long time spouse has passed.

Give your Mom all the love and help you can but she needs more space than you may think.. If she is strong enough, with your support, the ability to become the same person she was when he was alive will emerge.
