Love my family, but feeling crazy.....

So I live next door to my mom. We moved in to help her recover from cancer almost 4 years ago. And we have been through a lot. However my moms cancer is back and well there’s really nothing the drs can do... she is dying. She has been very sick for the last few weeks but I still love the time I spend with her.

The problem is that now my family wants everyone to get together for Christmas for one last family party before mom passes. If she makes it that long. But I really didn’t want to do this because we are a big group and every time we get together everyone gets sick and my baby will be maybe 5days old, depending on how close to my due date baby comes ( December 19th). I understand why they want to come and be with mom and that they want something for her to look foreword to but I really don’t want to risk the health of my baby. I’ve always kept my baby home with me for the first month to bond and strengthen baby.

I don’t think my family will understand because they don’t agree with me, and this frustrates them. I don’t know how to get them to understand, I want to be there for them but I can’t live with myself if my baby got really sick from this.

Honestly it’s hard enough losing my mom but to have to battle my siblings for the safety of my baby too...it’s just to much.

Also I kept this anonymous because my parents aren’t ready to tell anyone besides us kids that she is dying.
