Cain finds her next week at death’s door and stays at her bedside in her last moments
The village veteran played by Sally Dexter has been determined to live and die on her own terms as her cancer began to take over.
While she has become frail, she managed to make some memories with her loved ones and repair her complicated relationship with her son Cain.
Believing she tied all the loose ends she could, Faith prepares to end her days in upcoming scenes of the ITV soap.
However, Cain soon arrives and realises what Faith has done.
Devastated, the village tough man tries to keep her as comfortable as he can while she drifts closer to death.
Faith eventually takes her final breath, leaving Cain heartbroken.
News of her death travel round the village, leaving her family and friends devastated.
Prior to finding his mother in such a position, Cain made sure her day was full of happy memories when Faith wanted to take a trip to the seaside.
With her health making her unable to travel, the Dingles and Faith’s village friends all pitched in to bring the sea to her.
Cain was even able to share one last dance with his mother.
The pair haven’t had the easiest of relationships over the years as Cain was most notably angry with Faith for abandoning him and his sister Chas with their father Shadrach Dingle.
While the former was spared from any abuse, Cain was often brutalised by his alcoholic father.
Most recently, Cain was unable to move past the fact Faith had lied to him about Nate Robinson.
Faith knew that Nate was Cain’s son but kept it to herself and even helped cover it up, believing she was protecting the lad from a racist Shadrach, but Cain didn’t see it that way.
Eventually, and as soon as he found out Faith was terminally ill, Cain made an effort to be present for his mother – while his sister is having an illicit romance with one of his biggest rivals.
Emmerdale airs weeknights from 7.30pm on ITV.
