Sorry but I'm having a bad day and I just need to let it out.  I woke up feeling like I've had no sleep and really down.  Mum's been bad this week - a lot of pain and, I think, sliding into depression - so I'm in overdrive on worrying about her.  My sister is with her today so I don't need to go round to see mum although I probably will drop round later.  I thought I would throw myself into cleaning the house so make myself busy and then I'd start to feel better.  My fatal mistake was asking my 18 year old daughter to help.  She had a major strop.  I tried to keep calm as I realise that she is worrying about my mum too but it was hard.  I tried to talk to her but she just got worse and worse so I gave up.  Then my husband made sarcastic comments about it all - again he is worrying and his mum is also not well - so I am still trying to keep a lid on it.  But I feel even worse now.  I'm now sitting on the sofa in my pyjama's watching old episodes of Grey's Anatomy without the will to do anything else.  I just keep crying and feel so very very sad.

  • Hi every one great to here from u hope every one is ok I lost my dad in august and it’s 3 years Monday that mom passed away time sure does fly hope every one is ok much love x

  • I'm back on here as I now have another friend with terminal cancer. I've lost count of the people I've lost since mum died. All of them, except one, have been because of cancer.

    I'm not doing very well today.  I just want to sit and stare into space.

    I'm not really telling people how I feel as I feel like they're thinking "oh God, not again!" Well maybe not quite that unfeeling but along those lines. 

    I want to talk about it but I don't want to.

    Wish cancer would just fuck off.

  • Hi Michelley,

    That's awful. I'm so sorry. 

    My friend's not been well for a while and we didn't think it was anything too serious but then she had tests and it turns out that it is.

    They've offered her some treatment but it won't make much of a difference.  She told me at the weekend that she might not even have it. 

    I can't help her and I don't want to go through this again. For once everything was going well and now it's all turned to shit again. 

    It's so bloody awful.
