Losing Someone to Cancer

This is for anyone who has lost somone to cancer. I lost my adopted Mom to breast cancer some years ago. She was everything I could have asked for. She loved me because I was just me. She also loved my family and children as if they were her own.

Hi Sue, I am sorry nobody has shown you support on this first anniversary of your loss.   Many hugs and prayers being sent your way.

Hi Anna,  I know all this activity is making you a little crazy, but on the other hand its giving you little time to think and sometimes that is a good thing.  Maybe your family just wants to be with you on this first anniversary of your husbands passing and I am sure they won't care what the house or yard look like.  Just relax and enjoy the support they appear to be offering you.  Hugs & prayers.

Dear Sue, I also feel like if i'm not remembering Denise, no one is.  And I cannot let her be forgotten, she was too wonderful to be forgotten, so i have to remember her always.

Love MIke

Sue, sorry noone in your life showed you they remembered and care that you lost so much last year.  It is 5 days until the year anniversary of my husbands death.  Every day for the past few weeks has brought back horrible memories of his last days.  My family is so supportive but certain things have happened that make me wonder....  My sister from the other side of Canada is able to come to BC for a visit and will be here on July 1st.  My other sisters and brothers are coming here to have a mini family reunion and it is making so crazy.  I am hurting so bad I can hardly function but I have to plan meals, clean the house for company, tidy the yard, plan to be social when all I want to do is crawl back into bed and hide from the pain.  I thought I was doing so well and here I am back in the pain of last year once again.  One step ahead two steps back.  The difference I guess is I know I was doing better so I know I will get there again.  Just have to ride this wave out.

So sorry for your pain Sue. Its so hard to understand how some people can just move on like nothing has changed. My husband passed away almost four months ago and so many people think you should just move on and get over it. I really don't think I will ever get over it. I'm sorry you are hurting so bad still. We are all here for each other. I hope we all can find some peace and healing with our grief. I don't know if you've tried to find a support group to go to but I finally did and start next week. I know I know I need to talk to others not just write.

Sorry Sue if it helps I feel your pain.

Hi Friends,

My mother passed away 1 year ago today and nobody seems to care that I am hurting other than you guys. Not one person remembers or cares.

joni i hear ya i feel ya.  I want a redo too.  I beg GOD to set the hands of time back to January.  I beg GOD to bring her back.  I cry and cry and cry.  I don't want to get out of bed now.  So empty, so lonely.  My life has no meaning without her.

Hi all.... Feeling sick to my stomach, much of the time I pretend to be ok and strong and there are days I guess I am. But sometimes like today the pain (greif) hits me like a tidal wave. I'm crying and praying and praying and crying please come back baby!!! Redo I want a redo a do over...just sooooo mixed up, his family is treating me like crap which makes me angry with him....I don't know why, its not his fault....most of them drink alcoholically. I'm just all mixed up and hurting... Afraid. Glad to be able to come to this site and let loose. I know tomorrow will be better. God help us all.....love Joni
