Trying to get my mind around things...

Well Nana keeps getting worse and worse. The cancer keeps spreading. Last week she went to the doctor and he felt around her stomach because she complained of stomach pain and her liver is enlarged from the cancer. She is in a lot of pain and I guess is on morphine for it. She has hospice. Which usually when someone has hospice there is nothing

I'm sorry your mom has such a strained relationship with her mother, but I'm glad that at least it wasn't ever so bad that either of them disowned the other and caused a family rift. Of course living through a strained relationship is no fun (even if it's diluted by a generation gap).

I think I would probably choose to believe the same thing as you, that your grandmother has realised her behavior has been less than perfect and is trying to make some kind of amends.

Sorry I haven't responded until now, I've been terrible with anything that reminds me of my dad and his cancer. I haven't event talked to my parents in almost 2 weeks, which stops today. I think sometimes I believe if I don't talk to them it will make things feel better because I can pretend it's not there, but instead I feel sad all the time with a good topping of guilt. Anyway, this isn't supposed to be about me
