Oh sky ..

Bless ya .. cancer sucks ... esp when it hits so many ones that are close ... your not alone .. we all feel like running ... if truth be told ... even us with cancer ... 

What cancer does your mum have ... as you know there's lots of us cancer lasses and lads on here , pushing the boundries ... and cancer has come a long way ... so don't give up yet ...

You know it really is o.k to feel scared/ angry / tearfull and to even feel o.k ... all those feelings we have to acknowledge they are emotions we need to express ... l think I'm pretty strong, but I've had my moments , where I "lost the plot" ... and couldn't stop crying .. then when it's all out .. somehow we find the will to go on a tad longer ... just take one day at time ... try not to look ahead ... then it looks overwhelming... 

I can't imagine how one human can go through so much ... but you can always chat / vent on here ... we can't take it away .. but we can listen ... sending you a big vertual hug.... Chrissie

Thanks Chriss,

At the moment I feel really, really overwhelmed. My mum has just been given 3 months to live. I should find out about my dads condition in a couple of weeks - see if he can get any treatment. It feels more overwhelming becasue my husband is so ill - he has end stage liver failure.

My head is swimming at the moment. Everything feels not real.

Hi there ..

Now I know this sounds strange but you need a bit of time just for you .. even a couple of hours .. go to the park or even a coffee shop .. but think you need a break ...

No one can handle that much alone .. have you a good friend ... you know I lost my amazing mum suddenly from a heart attack and had no chance to even say those things like I was so proud to be her daughter... your getting a bit of time with your mum , l never got ... try to leave nothing unsaid ... make every day count with her .. that is too much to cope with let alone the other things ..

When I was low with my early diagnosis l called McMillan and it was so lovely Just to talk to someone who understood .... give them a try and ask about councilling for you ... l think you need a release ... even writing everything you feel on here .. Will be painful to do.. but it can help writing the words and feelings all down ...

Sending you a vertual hug.... Chrissie...
