My younger brother has been diagnosed with cancer in several different areas.  When I am with him I can talk, laugh and joke.  When I’m not with him I feel sick and I keep bursting into tears.  I can’t function.  How can I come to terms with this situation- how have you all coped?

  • I'm sorry you're having to go through this. I am as well with my dad. (We found out 2 days ago he has less then 2 months to live.) I can't help you with ways to deal with the news. I'm also crying all the time. But if you just need a sounding board, I'm here for you. I know what your going through and it's hard. I'm having a hard time too.

    Bless you and your family.  I didn’t I could cry so much.  I hope you get to spend valuable time with your dad.  Look after yourself
