    i feel so :( and :mad: all at the same time

    we got some bad news today and my family dont really take much but im worried about my dad

    cancer is both side of ourt familes and sadly its taken alot of member because of it

    i never seen my dad so low today for the first time in years he just didnt give a **** about anything

    he has lost 2 brothers and 2 sisters in the space of 3 years to cancer and today his other sister found out she has cancer in both kidneys

    my dad lost his mother and father to cancer also

    everyone in out family get tested once a year for it

    my dad did have cancer and survived it that was when i was a baby

    and when my dad other sister had it she also survived it

    my dad other two brother lucky never had cancer (heres hoping)

    i just wish that someday soon they find a cure because im getting a little suck of losing family members to it and were a close group so we all bare the pain and struggles

    TL,DR i hate cancer

    a positive attitude is contagious, cancer isn't, so my suggestion is you talk to your family member. there are times when not being a talky family is ok. sounds like this is probably not one of those times.

    Enjoy each and every day. Spend time together. Let each other know you love and care for them. Laugh often and appreciate each other. Be strong. It's hard to do but worth the memories. Give your dad a big hug,

    Sorry to hear your troubles OP,must be very hard on all the family but as has been said staying positive is very important,understandable that your dad will have his down days but so will you,so talk.
    As a cancer patient getting treated myself at the moment i to have my down days but having a strong/positive attitude & family to help you through times like this,well it's priceless
    Stay strong
