1 Year on and it's creapt up and bit me again

1 minute read time.

I haven't been on this site since my darling Ray passed over as I found it too hard.   He has been gone 1 year on the 3rd August and it has been the year from hell.   2 weeks after his funeral my younger sister Jane was diagnosed with Peritoneal Cancer (a form of ovarian cancer).  Up to that point she didn't even feel unwell, it was so sudden. She had an op to remove all the cancer and they told her she was 'microscopically clean' and they would give her chemo just to mop up.   She had chemo up to February and was told all was clear, then 2 weeks ago had stomach pains again and has now been told that she is terminal, worst case scenario 6 months best cast scenario 3 years.  She was taken back into hosptal yesterday with more stomach pains and they are saying they think it has something to do with the new chemo they have started.  She is terrified and I don't know how to ease her fears.  I am coming up to the anniversary of Ray's passing so am not feeling at my best at the moment.  This year has been so bad, I miss him so much and just want him here to tell me what to do to help my sister.  I watched him suffer for 6 months and still don't sleep properly, waking up and remembering his last moments.  I love my sister dearly and just cannot find the right words for her.   Ann

    My dear Ann..I wish I had words of comfort to give you and make you feel a little better but I have none that would help, life can be so unfair. All I can do is send you my love and my thoughts and some hugs. We will give you support any time you need us. I am so very sorry....love Carol x

    Hi Ann, What an awful time you have had.  I am so very sorry for the loss of your lovely husband.  I hope that you can find those words for your sister, I am sure they will come.  It is amazing (as you I am sure already know), this super human strength that seems to bestow us when our loved ones need us the most.  Hugs to you
