My mother is dying, please please read?
My mother is dying from lung tumour (despite never smoking a cigarette). She needs a cancer treatment but does not have enough money to cover it.

My father is a Singaporean citizen. He fought in the battle to defend Singapore. In order to remain fighting, he has to survive on raw cassava and drinks infested water, infested by corpses.

My father never asked for anything from Singaporean Government despite his severe sacrifices for Singapore and Singaporean citizens, not even in his dying days. (He had diabetes and died in 1998).

I went to the embassy of Singapore but they say, they cannot help because my mother is not Singaporean.

This week, my mother had to go to the ER due to major breathing difficulty. I was told by the Doctor that without cancer treatment, my mother is going to die soon.

Is there really no way for the Government of Singapore to help my mother?

You did not say what her nationality is or where she is living now. Consult with the government officials in the nation she is from or see if help is available from the the nation you are now living in.

I lost my mother at an early age, 9. I can relate to the little brother's pain. Just tell both of them that if there is anything you could do to comfort them that you are available. Your boyfriend may be going through some personal trials he had with his mother--his emotions will be all over the place. Time does heal, though. I know that may seem untrue today, but just be there for them both. You don't have to really say anything except to comfort them with a smile or a hug. You deserve a star for this question. You all deserve hugs..
