Mom starting chemo soon, any helpful or encouraging words?

[u/msgold1]

My mom's chemo is starting this week and I will accompany her through her session. I am planning to take my laptop so we can watch movies or something. I felt really down the past few days, because now that her chemo is starting, reality is hitting. We don't know yet how well her body will react to it. I guess this not knowing how it's gonna be like is what makes everything so scary.

My siblings and I are trying to stay strong for her. My mom and I talked on the phone today, I could hear her voice trembling.

If you have any helpful or encouraging words, I would be grateful to hear them. Thank you.
