Devastating news

Storky, 17 June, 2010 at 14:08 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 17

Hi ladies

Am sat here sobbing my little heart out so am hoping this is going to help. One of our family friends was diagnosed with throat cancer on Thursday. 43 years old. I've just found out she died a few hours ago. Not only am I completely devastated for her family (and mine) but it's brought all sorts of horrible memories back for me. I went through a lot of chemo and radiotherapy as well as a couple of operations for breast cancer a few years back. Whilst I was one of the lucky ones, it just brings back of all the fright and upset from that time. Pathetic, eh?

I can only take solace from the fact that it was quick and relatively painless for her at the end and that I'l always be able to remember her at her best. Never makes it any easier though.

I feel a bit better for writing it out.

Wishing you all happiness and health, CB x

    CB I am so, so sorry you're going through this. Have a very inadequate hug. ?

    And what you're feeling is not pathetic - it's all bound to remind you of when you went through all of it yourself. We're all here if you need to talk.

    Thank you. You've all made me feel a bit better. I think I just have to cry it out and then all of the usual 'time is a healer' stuff. Bah. I knew it was going to be a horrid day when I woke up.

    Thanks again, you lot are lovely!
