I have lost my 3rd sister yesterday to cancer,secondary from breast cancer.I also lost my dad at 15,i watched him slowly leave us over 2 years.His was lung cancer.My dad passed on the gene BRCA2 to my 3 sisters.Fortunately i am clear but i dont think i grieved properly after losing my dad then 2 sisters together 5yrs later when i was 20.There was no chemo back then and my sisters were gone 4 mths after diagnosis.It was never really understood or discussed and i found it hard to accept.My 3rd sister who just passed,had a mass on her adrenal gland which is very rare.She had been in remission 15yrs which she was grateful for but i feel this has hit me so hard this time as im 61 now and wiser.I cannot stop thinking of what happened to my dad and siblings and i feel its affecting my life and relationships.Im alone as i feel if i meet a man he will pass too.Does anyone else feel like i do? Its a scary feeling.
