Hello,
I don’t know if this is the right place. How do people deal with losing a loved one? My sister has terminal cancer, she is so well in herself but it is terminal and has spread to her brain. Shes had her last lot of treatment, a 2nd round of whole brain radiation and if this doesn’t work she won’t be allowed anymore. She’s also been having immunotherapy for two years which has completely got rid of the cancer anywhere else.
When we first found out it had spread to her brain I really suffered with anticipation grief, I was thinking about life without her, her children, what her funeral would be like and it was almost as if I was acting like she’d already gone when she is still here. I’m terrified of the day coming but we know it will. I don’t know how I’m going to cope with losing her. It’s also made me incredibly anxious about others. My Dad is elderly and hasn’t been well recently, I’m scared I’m going to lose him too. I keep having thoughts of losing everyone, my husband is well but I’m terrified he’s going to die as well, i worry my mum is going to die. I’m just really struggling and I don’t know who I can talk to about it.
I know everyone will die because that’s life and we all will at some point, I think I just thought that it wouldn’t be for a long while yet and it seems to be happening way too soon. Even though I know anyone of us could die tomorrow, but I still struggle with how I’m going to cope. My sister is only early 40’s.
Is there anywhere to speak to someone as I just feel like I cry everyday.
Thank you for reading. Sorry it’s long.
