In last night’s episode Cain broke down in tears as he told Chas about his childhood.
Cain said when he was a child he tried to kid himself that Faith had really died to make himself feel better about her leaving
He explained that after Faith left, two older boys found him crying and asked what was wrong.
He told them that his mother died in a car crash, even though he knew she hadn’t.
Cain then recounted how after that incident he actually started to believe she died and that’s why she wasn’t coming back.
Meanwhile, Faith went to see Eric and Brenda to tell them her cancer had spread and her decision to stop treatment.
She told them about her regrets when it came to Cain and how she would go tomorrow if she could take away the hurt she caused.

Later Bear came into the pub and encouraged Cain to make his peace with his mother.
Faith left Eric and Brenda’s and Cain approached her.
He told her that Paddy told him where she was.

Faith told her son that she loved him and always would. Cain couldn’t say it back but Faith assured him he didn’t need to.
Together they watched the sunrise as Faith held onto her son’s hands.

#emmerdale tonight's episode is one of the best I've seen. It's a hard watch because my mam went the same way but it's being done so sensitively and beautifully. @HordleyJeff and @SallyDexterUK you made me sob it was so lovely at the end
