My Brother

Hi everyone,

It's currently 2:15 AM and I am sitting with my laptop in bed. I have been reading a book tonight and just when I was about to sleep, everything hit me again: my brother has Hodgkin. For the past 3 weeks there have been lots and lots of examinations but only since thursday it has been confirmed. Today is the first day I am sleeping alone since the awful news. About a month ago I moved out to go to college, and I just feel so alone right now. I can't go downstairs to talk with my dad about it, I can't get some comfort from my mother... it's just a little bit too much right now. So that's why I decided to find something like this: a website you would never hope you needed. But here I am.
I am craving some contact with someone who has got the same issues as me. I just want someone to understand me, to rely on. Could you please message me if that person is you?

Kind regards,
Frederieke
