There comes a time in life...when we come to terms with mortality. Some people Must go through a tramatic experience, and some will just gradually make the leap. The end result is the same....acceptance of reality. Once we see this is not something to fear, clarity can overtake the confusion of terror. The worry factor is counterproductive, and often delays acceptance of the inevitable. That said.....optimism is a great friend at these times, and a sense of humor is a powerful tool.
As for Mum.....be honest, be strong, and above all, allow her to love you. She will need that more than you need the love.....which is saying something all by itself.

Just my 2 cents.
