Hi,
Iam 21 years old and my mum got digonised with Lukema 2 years ago. At the time she got digonised my nan (my mums,mum) died of lung cancer. It was such a hard time in my life. Mum has a bone maror transplant and it didnt work so she had to have a top up. Now 2 years on she is still fiting that CMV virus! she got told about 1 month ago there is a infection in the brain, we had to go through so much. it kills me seeing the people i love so upset and in so much pain! I just dont know what too do any more? my mum now has lost all feeling in her legs and arm, she cant do anything for herself.we are waiting for the doctors to have a solution now! I have had such a hard 2 years,lost my nan had to deal with all this, lost my job about 3 months ago, all my friends just stopped talking too me. Please can some one tell me things will get better for me? Because at the moment i feel lost! I miss having a mum and a dad. It causes me so much pain seeing my dad upset and i try and be brave too be stong for him but its just so hard. Seeing your dad cry!!!
Does anyone know how i feel??
