Long tyme no blog lol

2 minute read time.

Hi all sorry i havent blogged for a while, havent been getting to grips with this site, but think i'm getting the hang of it now lol

 

If someone was to say to me right now ''How do u feel''? My reply would be ''Nothing'' Because i dont i feel complete numbness, If someone came to me now and hit me over the head with a blunt i dont think i would feel a thing, It's weird i dont think i've cried once since i found out my Mum has Cancer, It had'nt really hit me. She had all her head shaved the other day, and as i was sitting there watching her beautiful hair fall to the ground i could feel myself welling up, Everyone else just sat there in complete awe over it, So naturally i sucked them back up and told myself not to be so stupid Because of course no-one else was crying so dont look like a tit and start blubbing!! So instead i did what comes natural to me, and tried to make it funny, Everyone laughed including Mum but somehom i felt bad for doing it as if to say i was turning mu Mum into some kind of circus freak! I knew she didnt feel that way but i just could'nt help but think it, Now this may seem silly bit now with her hair gone, she looks like she is ill, as in before she did'nt she looked normal, well as normal as people get, I thought to myself my Beautiful strong mum is being broken down one by one by this shitty disease it's taking away all the things that make her, her. I wanted to just reach inside her and rip it out, like a film i watched where the man had Lung Cancer and some man just delved inside his chest and ripped out the Cancer, God i wish i could do that!! I also had a chat with her one of the serious ones where we said that admitadly i dont do much round the house because i lock myself up in my room all day and when im not in my room im out with my friend's in the pub, So i decided sort yaself out, and well i think i have, or at least started to lol. It's a weird thing watching the person u love the most getting ill. If i had the choice for her Cancer to be given to me i would. Because i'm young and i'd maybe have more of a chance at surviving it. If i had one wish and one wish only it would be that Cancer never did or never has existed.

    We all wish cancer didn't exist, but remember, treatments are extremely effective these days and cancer is treatable. You only have to see the people on this site to see that chemotherapy and radiotherapy does work.

    I'm pleased to hear that you are helping your mum in the home. Believe me, she will be extremely grateful for your help. I'm lucky, I have my sister staying with me to help around the home. She has been wonderful and I don't know how I would have coped without her help, particularly on those days where I just don 't have any energy at all.

    Anyway it's nice to see you blogging again, but why so early in the morning? Are you joining us insomniacs?

    Take care

    My beautiful daughter cried buckets of tears when my long hair was cut off, it had to go because it was falling out because of the chemo, yes it said to her 'my mums got cancer and that confirmed it and at that point I too looked ill.It hurt to see her cry but I am glad she did, she needed to love and throughout my battle we cried together. You don't have to hold emotions inside, it is not always a good thing to do, tears are good, a release.

    cancer does exist, thats the problem and all anyone can do it fight it and what Angela has written is true, treatment can work honey. It is not over till the fat lady sings....Take care and sending hugs to you and your mum..love Carol x

    hi hun  ...... see u were up late again ..hahaha me too!

    when my son had his hair shaved   .... his daughter wanted to do it (shes only 10).... well she got so far thro and didnt look very happy ! mr N took over ...yeh we all kept upbeat but inside we all wanted to cry ....... its weird really beause they are going thro all this crap with chemo .....then the hair !!!! going ...it just slaps you in the face .....at first paul wouldnt answer door or anything without his cap on ...but after a few weeks he was out n about (usually under a big parasol with loadsa factor 50+ on!!!!) no cap or anything!

    and as for it rather being you ill ......errrr NO!!! .... bet that would be your mums worse nightmare! my son being ill is def my worse night mare and i often wish it was me and not him ......im old ive had a good life ...his kids need him

    the other thing ive done is to imagine me grabbing them tumours out and chucking them inthe bin or fire or whatever ....... so i suppose it doesnt matter our age ..... whether it be our sons/mums we all have the same feelings?

    within a month of ur mums chemo finishing her hair will be growing again thick n fast!!!! start savin up so you can treat her to a nice haircut in a swish hairdressers

    oooops hope she doesnt read this or else it wont be a surprise!!!!!!! lol
