Smokersmith Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) I lost my mother earlier year to an aggressive form. One of the positives we took was the opportunity to say what you wanted to each other before she passed. Some folks don't get that chance. Good luck.

'A grain of rice on a tic tac?' Jeeze was not my intention to cause any distress only to help the amount of oil to use is about the size of a grain of rice on a tic tack as the oil is bitter so the sweet makes it easier to handle ,if you want to take this further I have been fighting cancer for eight years so I have a dam good idea where he is at hence keep positive talk to your family it is really hard for them as well whats you positive input Edited July 1, 2017 by Saltings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckyshot Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 (edited) Truly a horrible thing to be going through, I lost my brother in law to brain cancer 8 weeks ago then my dad to bowel cancer 2 weeks later. It's easy for people to say keep your chin up but it's a dam sight harder doing it. Fingers crossed everything works out for you.

Mice! Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 Sorry to hear your news digger, my mum had similar this week, she had a whipple opp last year removing half the stomach but check up says its back in her liver now, as others have said do what you need to and try to stay up beat. We lost my dad nearly six years ago they said cancer, could well have been down to asbestos related, but we got a long good bye with nothing left unsaid make the most of your days and family.

grrclark Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 I hope you can find the resolve and strength to manage your illness to the best possible outcome. Do everything you can to make yourself and those you care about smile, it may not change the outcome, but the times we spend smiling are also the most cherished.

digger Posted July 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Thank you all. Some of the posts and messages have made me shed many tears. The kind words, private messages and thoughts are all beyond anything I expected. I have to seek help as to how to help my four year old daughter cope and stay strong for her. I wasn't looking for sympathy, I guess I wanted to vent. You are all helping more than you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
