Accepting death

Cancer is definatly one of the hardest things to watch your family members go through, watching their pain and suffering and not being able to do anything about it, and trust me i know the feelings 3 of my family members are suffering from cancer and every morning and every night i have to live with that reality. One of my family members is dying shes not been well for 6 years. Im still not ready for her to go, i never will be but i know all the pain and suffering she is going through can be stopped. 

My other 2 family members are not as bad there treatment is less agressive and they  are being very strong.

I never feel like i or anybody else has the right to complain about things when there is people suffering so badly in the world,we must sound so ungreatful to them when we are the ones who are healthy and dont have a timer on life.That is the one thing that i will always follow.

Thanks , Sarah

  • Hello Sarah,

    I am so sorry to hear three of your family members are suffering from cancer and it is so sad that one of them is dying. This is understandably affecting you a lot and I hope the treatment goes well for your other two family members.

    I hope that you will find some comfort in talking to others here who can completely relate to how you are feeling at the moment. We are all here for you anytime you need to talk.

    Best wishes,
