Hi im jane and I have the same all I do is thin about it all ..I have two daughters and a Grandson he is 2 and a half.i live with my youngest daughter..I also just lost my half brother to cancer last week. so every day is hard to know what to think about it all. but what I fo know is I get up each day and try to live. wish I had answers to why we have this awful cancer .you are not alone hun .I promise. xxxx
I am so sorry to hear that you lost your half brother so recently and send my condolences to you and your family. Can I ask when you got your diagnosis and what treatment you've had? With 1 in 2 people now having cancer and figures still growing, I suppose that we will all get to know more people who are affected by this disease. I am glad to hear that you live with your youngest daughter and hope that you find both of your girls a great support. Does your other daughter live nearby? At 2½ your wee grandson must be a joy. I expect that he probably lifts your spirits more than anyone else!
Hi Jane and Jolamine, thank you both for your kind words and support, x
Cancer is such a *** disease. I know we just have to keep fighting and enjoy what life we have left but as I’m sure you both know that trying to stay positive when you feel so *** is so tiring and sometimes the darkness creeps in. By answering my post You were a shining light on a very dark day. ️

It sounds as if you are have a lot on your hands, over and above your cancer. I am sorry to hear that your youngest daughter has mental health problems, but hope that these are well managed. So, you have a wedding to look forward to - that sounds really exciting. As you say, it is hard to keep positive all of the time and darkness does creep in - We refer to this as the rollercoaster of a cancer diagnosis - up one minute and down the next. All we can doo is to keep battling on and, if things get too dark, come and speak to us - we all know what it's like when those demons start creeping in!
I am glad to hear that we managed to get a tiny ray of light into your life on such as dark day. It is indeed hard to be positive all of the time. Do you have any hobbies or interests that might help to take your mind off cancer? It is so all encompassing that it tends to take over every thought. If you can find something that takes your attention to a different topic, this can help. I found doing a jigsaw was quite cathartic and I could always leave it and go back to it later if I was too tired or couldn't concentrate.
Please stay in touch and remember that we are always here for you.
