Has breast cancer affected you or your family? Please read! :(?!


Question: Has breast cancer affected you or your family.? Please read! :(.?
I just wanted to see who's been touched by breast cancer. Both my aunts have been diagnosed twice. The one I'm closest to just got over it all last month. I remember when she had to shave her head.

I sat there and watched her cry. It was entirely heartbreaking.

I was there when she had her mastectomy (removal of the breasts). That killed me, to see her suffer so much.

If anyone is out there that's been through something like this, I could really use some comforting words. I know that sounds so cheesy, but I'm crying my eyes out.

My mom was diagnosed today.Health Question & Answer


Answers:
I'm so sorry about your mother being diagnosed, but I'm sure she's a strong person and lucky, too, because she has you to help her.

My mom was diagnosed when I was fourteen, and it was so hard for me to watch someone I loved have to suffer. It was especially hard when she had her chemo and my friends would come over and ask why my mom didn't have any hair.

I'm glad that you seem to be able to talk about it. I'm seventeen now, and I still never talk about it even with my closest friends, which probably isn't a good thing. Just because I don't talk about it, doesn't mean that it didn't happen. Make sure you let her know that you're there for her. I regret that I never let my mom know that I was scared, but that I was still there for her.

I hope that everything goes well with your mom and I'm sure she will recover soon with love and help from you and your family.Health Question & Answer

i am 12 years old and my mom had breast cancer in 2003. luckily she survived! she had one breast removed so she is now uneven. she isnt confident about herself now and its so heartbraking. it was hard for me because i was only in kindergarten but she will always remember i was there for her as long as her side of the family. although my dads side was not. :(

last year my 69 year old grandmother was diagnosed also. i was also crying but i was there for her also. she always said when my mom had breast cancer that she wished she could go through that pain instead if my mom....and that came true. but not at the right time. she also survived and i am actually with her right now.

i am sorry to hear about your family members. you just gotta believe that they'll be okay. settle down. i will pray for your family ;)Health Question & Answer

Lucky i haven't........
I'm really sorry you have tho and my thougths are with you. :)Health Question & Answer

I am so, so sorry. My aunt currently has breast cancer and her son, my cousin, just died of terminal brain cancer at the age of 21. I know it is very difficult but it's best to remember that the medical and pharmaceutical worlds are making incredible advancements in regard to breast cancer. I can't know exactly how you're feeling, but you have my love and sympathy.

It helps to be active sometimes. Maybe you, your mom and aunts (when all of you are feeling up to it) could go on a walk for the cure, or participate in cancer-cure advocacy. There are so many women out there who have been touched by this horrible thing. I am terrified of it, myself.

Cancer is the worst.Health Question & Answer

I myself haven't gone through that painful process. My husband has, his dad was diagnosed with cancer, he had it really advanced already and the doctors gave him a maximum of 1 year of life or less. Well to make the long story short, God helped him out of that and now its been twelve years since that happened. Yeah, he has an intestinal bag he has to carry with him 100% of the time and change it every day or two, but he's alive, he has one little grandson already, and I can assure you he's enjoying the life that God's gave him, he is a very positive person and God has proved to him that he's always been and will be with him. Doesn't matter that he can't do a couple of things he used to do before, he's alive, with his family, and he better than me gives comfort to other people with a similar problem using his testimony and the scars it literally/unliterally left behind.
So tell your aunt not to worry about her hair or her breasts, that's just physical appearance, the worst has passed and she's made it. She's still alive. =)
As for your mom, don't loose hope, you have to try and be strong for her. Have faith, both of you, I know it's easy to say, but I don't know what other words would fit in perfectly well.Health Question & Answer
