Hi I’m Shorty

my dad has terminal cancer I’m not coping well. Any advice would be much appreciated

  • Hi shorty ...

    So sorry your dad's got this crule cancer and it's devistating to those close too .. esp a terminal diagnosis ..

    As someone with cancer ... and others l know would say Simerla. . Make the most of every day .. pack a lifetime of memories for you to keep .. try not to look ahead, as then it becomes overwhelming. .. you know it's o.k to admit your both scared ... it's o.k to share tears ... and a big one is leave nothing unsaid .. 

    It's one of the hardest roads we will ever walk ... and someone right there by your side means more then you'll ever know ... being able to say all the gentle honesty things that need saying ... you'll look back and be proud you made his last months or hopefully years an easier road to walk ..

    That's what I've done since my diagnosis ... l pack as much in as I can ... l look at life differently now ... every day is a bonus ... and having a loving son like you is priceless ... so try to live in the day .. go with feelings and say it's o.k to feel them ... no one knows if well be here tomorrow. . So live for today ..

    Sending you a vertual hug ... Chrissie x
