Oh bless him- he has always been the one we humour, the one we pamper , the one we like to make smile. He has had some of the of worst news you could get. GBM grade 4- can't operate- have some chemo- they said- we'll keep you well as long as possible- they said- how long is that? No answer...So he accepts it- he smiles- he can't talk now- the tumour has taken that away. But in there somewhere is my brother, and I love him.
He may live 120 miles away- but we can sort that- with the help of an understanding husband, and an understanding employer . He's only 36- but he accepts it all- not sure I can though. I am angry, I cannot forgive, I cannot accept, I cannot see the positive.
But I could win an Oscar when trying to hold up my parents, and my sister, I can be benevolent to the outside world anyway.
Where on the internet does it tell you how to cope with all this?
I've read the blogs- and I admire you all- but I cannot accept this- he's my little brother and I cannot fix this for him.
