Avatar f tn for the baby and how much will effect him. I usually a very emotional person when dealing with death and I feel like a horrible person for not allowing myself to feel bad. What do I do???
Avatar f tn Just like falling in love takes time so does dealing with a passing of a loved one.Just opposite ways of feeling.Love and loss,two parts of life that both hurt.For loving anyone or anything,such as a pet can lead to pain.All feelings lead to pain and despair,eventually.So do we stop feeling,stop loving,stop caring,no we just learn to adjust to our new lives without that loved one that pet,that friend.whom ever.Death ends a life,not a relationship.
Avatar m tn I am ok with him passing because he was a preacher for 32 years. He was diagnosed with throat cancer. Doctors said it was treatable. The cancer slowly ate away his main blood vessel in his neck. On Aug 28, 2011 i was with him when he hemridged and bleed to death in my lap at his home. I cant get visuals out of my head. My wife is starting to get frustraded with me because i get down mostly in the afternoons. I try to stay strong for my son. I just dont know what else to do.

452063 tn?1324074916 Corey, I'm really sorry about what you're going through. I'm still dealing with my mom's death last year from cancer...she was only 54. There she was sick as hell fighting for her life while I was perfectly healthy & doing everything I could to destroy mine. I was feeling that I was the one that deserved to die. Now I know, that the best thing I can do is become well bc thats what my mom would have wanted---& I know thats what Alexis would have wanted for you.
Avatar n tn I think there are some women that successfully beat the beast, depending on their initial diagnosis and staging. But as with any cancer, the usual time is 5 years cancer free before being declared "cured." Many women do go on for years dealing with remissions and reoccurrences. I have a friend that has been off and on chemo for over 8 years now and her last scan was clear. How exciting is that? She's active and happy and travels. Is she considered cured?

It works by trying to reduce the intake of Carbohydrates and Calories massively, aswell as protein. The reason for this is that the regular body cells are flexible enough to change accordingly in response to this, whereas the cancer is not. Therefore, it will starve to death. Any other treatments would be appreciated more than anything in the world.

732810 tn?1232129554 Hi, I am having a very difficult time dealing with family without having modd swings. I am trying to go to meetings, but my schedule and family situations are keeping me from doing so. Funny, I could have gone to bars and just neglected family in the past, but now, I am dealing with family situations and trying to be present. However, my children and my husband are DRIVING ME CRAZY. I keep serenity prayering and it helps for a little bit.
Avatar n tn So I had the ovaries removed along with my uterus because my mom had uterine cancer. I am 45, which I think is young to have had this major surgery. I am now in surgical menopause which I hope will improve in a couple weeks once I start hormone replacement. I understand your concern and frustration with repeat cysts. They are no picnic. Has your doc tried birth control pills or possibly the lupron injection, which puts you into a drug induced menopause?

Another thing that made it hard for me was not telling anyone except my husband because my son was getting married and we didn't want to take the attention away from him and his fiance at this important time. Once we knew the plan for treatment and were able to tell our family, things got much easier. I also found great comfort in prayer and meditation. Hang in there!

Avatar f tn I have a friend who lost his wife a few months ago to cancer and is having a very hard time dealing with it. Yesterday I received another email from him (I live 300 miles away) and following is an excerpt of that email; " I"m not doing very well with this situation here. I don't know how people survive the sadness, loneliness, pain & guilt. My daughter said, why do you feel guilty, dad? I told her it's because she's dead,and I'm not.
Avatar f tn This is the specialist who has the training and experience to recognize what s/he is dealing with. This is the person with the expertise to do your surgery. You do this whether you think it's cancer or not. Most cysts are benign, but you need to have this surgery based on the ultrasound and CA125 results. Only the pathology report can tell whether or not you have cancer. I had a single mass on one ovary about nine years ago.

When the vet told me what was wrong with Bruno, and my options, I brought him back home, and saw to it that he lived as naturally and pain-free as he always had. The last three weeks of his life were hard for me, altho' he carried on with little fuss.
Avatar m tn Halo everyone i am new in this forum. I got an 56 year old auntie who have been diagnosed with stage 3c ovarian cancer which hasn't spread to other organ yet. She started off with chemotherapy. Is chemotherapy only going to cure her?? How many years does she have left ??
Avatar f tn i don't know how you deal with losing a child. I'm not so sure that i can ever get through this, how do you do it? I mean get up every day and not feel guilty for living without them. I feel so guilty every day for getting out of bed and her not being here. I need some advice please.
Avatar m tn Needless to say, with my personal bad luck with cancer, I am scared to death. I am very worried that I have cancer (again) and am sick and tired of dealing with cancer! I take care of myself by exercising daily, eating right, and taking great care of myself. I can't believe how unlucky I am! Anyway with my horrible history what are the chances that these microcalicifications are indeed cancer? How can one person be so unlucky?
