How to cope with cancer news
My dad is 67 years old. He had stomach pain. So we showed doctor he said its 100% cancer. They have given biopsy. Probably we might get results in 5-6 days. It makes me really think of future. The things hell miss. He was very good dad and grandfather.
Plus mother also was very attached.
They stay together both of them
Im living in my husband house. I have seen my two aunty thats my uncles wife suffer from cancer and chemo. I feel really bad for my dad. Even though we are praying report to come as non cancerous.
When i see old people in my family. Who are 70 plus. I wish my dad could live longer see his grandchildren.

Im very reserved person with not much friends. Even the few friends i dont talk much. So im always attached to my mom frst, then dad, husband. Now i have two year old

Hi. I appreciate you talking about your concern.
It's a temporary phase and very obvious and natural thing. When some near n dear is going to that diagnostic phase and the results are pending, it will automatically reduce once the results come.
Count yourself as a fortunate person. Give gratitude to what he has done for and got the opportunity to do good for the society.

Situations like this is really hard to handle for anyone. Pray and let's always hope for the best and get second opinion from different doctor.
Don't give up, treatment for cancer has become advanced. If you feel bad, talk to someone whom you feel comfortable with. Understand the fact that your 2 year old is depended on yourself and always look up to their parents. Stay strong and face the situation.
Further if you find it difficult accepting things, don't hesitate to get help from the professional. Sooner is better.
