Deerman, it's so true...and it goes the other way too. It's so hard to talk to Dad and my Mom about his cancer, because it upsets us all so much, and I can see how much he hates to see people he loves upset on account of him. But he's such a great Dad that *of course* I'm sad (and I'm no spring chicken myself, either). So I come here because it's one of the few places where I don't have to pretend that this is going okay. It sucks, I hate it, it's awful, I wish I could kick cancer in its man parts and make it cry for what it's doing to him and to my whole family. And you guys get it. So thank you all for that.
I don't post much but think of you all every day.
Stay tough, feel well. Love to you.
It's never easy............you just gotta do what you gotta do. My Mom died of lung cancer a few years back......she never really told us kids everything, they were very private about it. But we kinda knew
the more secretive they were about it, the more we knew something was up. That was just they way they were with things. I guess they didn't want their children to worry. (?!) I hope you all don't think what I'm about to say is horrible but, at least with a disease like cancer (if it's terminal) you get to say goodbye and support them the best way you can. I think it would be worse if a loving member of your family died suddenly like a car accident, and you never get to say goodbye. Just my thoughts on that lately......
