want to share the story of Cancer went over with my family.

My name is Haris from Pakistan and my elder sister had a breast cancer for almost 14 years.In between i was in the UK and keep hearing from family that they are going to cancer hospital for treatment which was a beggining for our family and we ve no Idea of its hardness and. for almost 13 years and few months it was quite fine going to hospital in a required gap some times twice in 6 months and then once a month and then twice a month or so as the desease was its first or second stage but then after it gones in stage 3 we had to do more effort going almost 3 hours drive and then 3 hours return.we saw many or numbers of patients which where increasing day by day and it looked like whole city or most of ppl in the country is going through with this no mercy desease.

my sister went through a very painful months and days at the About 4 months before her death it was told a 4rth stage which was a very painfull time for whole family and more painful was to think that she had 4 girls and the youngest was only 13 who spent her whole life with watching her mom in the pain and effort to fight with this desease.

she was died in april 12 2013.

i want to share and listen other ppl going through this.

Regards,

Haris.

  • Hi Haris,

    I really feel for you and your family having to go through this, it is hard to see your sister suffer like this and especially at times when you were so far away from her, you must have felt so helpless.

    My sister was diagnosed with cancer, she was 41 at that time with a 4 year old son.  He also grew up watching his mum having treatment and feeling ill.  She was older than me by 2 years and always tried to protect me, I was her little sister regardless of how old I was.  She sadly died after 3 years of battle, my nephew was then 7 years old.  She lived 6000 miles away from me at the time which was hard as I felt so helpless, but I did manage to get to see her a few times in that time and I was there when she passed away.

    You never get over losing your sister, but you do find a way to cope with it.  I spent a few years very bitter and angry, but I now like to think of it that I was lucky to have someone that strong and caring as my sister for 41 years, some people can spend a lifetime with a sibling and never have that bond.

    I was blessed to have her.

    My nephew coped, he has a fantastic dad that is devoted to him and 13 years later, he has grown into a confident and caring young man.

    Take care and try to remember the good times with your sister, it will help you cope.  I am here if you need a chat.

  • Hi Haris


    Oh I am so sorry that you only lost your sister in April of this year, it must still feel so raw for you. It takes a long time, but I promise you it does get easier with time. You can remember the good times you had with your sister, before the illness took over. Are you close to your niece that is 13 years old? That is such a hard age to lose your mum! I am sure she will.need someone to talk to about it. Once they knew that my sister was going to die, my brother-in-law and nephew had grief counselling, they continued that for a couple of years afterwards, it helped them both a lot.

    I live in the Uk too, I have sent you a friend request, if you accept that, we can private message each other, which is better than putting too many private details on a public forum.
