Yes it is. My mom died of liver cancer and her brother (my uncle) has prostate cancer. Every time I get a back pain I worry about having it. That's how my uncle found out he did. But he's had it for ten years and he's still hanging in there.
I hope your kin is as lucky as he has been. And then some.Beware of DogComment

Unfortunately she did. She wouldn't go to the doctor even though she had great insurance. She was tired of living I guess. She never got over losing a daughter at 24. She lost faith in everything after that. She even asked that religion not be mentioned at her funeral. She had been a churcher for her whole life before that.Beware of DogComment

My sister lucked out. She went in for just a routine exam and the doctor discovered cancer in the early stages. They were amazed that he even found it but he did. It was a type of cancer that spreads fast and she just had to do minor surgery and take the nuclear medicine without full on chemo to get rid of it.
This is why I always want to be able to choose my own doctor. You never will see that specialist unless your private physician sends you to them. A lot of serious health problems can be caught early by a family practitioner. By going back to the same one they know you, your family medical trends, and can see what's normal and what isn't specific to you. It's very important that you have that kind of relationship with your doctor and you go in for a check up once a year.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Man this sucks Angel. I really feel sad for you guys. And that's not bullshit. Luckily you guys still have a lot of love for one another. I haven't had contact with anyone in my old family in at least 2 years.....and those last contacts were not positive. No one wants to die & no one cares or even knows about it. You want to think everyone around you loves you & will miss you & remember you. But don't concentrate too much on that. Enjoy every moment you can while everyone is still here.
As far as parents outliving children....one thing that I feel that I know is selfish of me but I kinda wish I would have died before my mom did. My reasoning being when I go I want that 1 person with unconditional love for me to care.
Chemo is awful. Wish I had some tips but I don't. It just sucks & he has to find anything he can to grasp on to. One big thing that pulled me through was we planned a 7 day Mexico cruise for right after my chemo ended. So it gave me motivation each day to get through it & once over I had about 10 days to try & regain as much health as possible for the cruise. I was still pretty sick on the cruise & had no appetite.......but I really loved seeing those places in Mexico.
....and one last thing. Years later I still have "chemo brain". My brain doesn't work like it used to. I notice it in little things but my concentration is different. My dreams are different. I process things different. And it pisses me off because doctors don't really believe me.“Great losses often bring only a numb shock. To truly plunge a victim into misery, you must overwhelm him with many small sufferings.”Comment
