When it rains, it fucking pours....
So. Real Life Update...
Dad had surgery on Wednesday. The cancer on his lung is the melanoma. Basically...means he's a walking dead man. They're going to give him chemo to prolong his time..but until the doctors see how that goes, they won't give us a time frame of long he has left. My mum had to call my grandma (Dad's mum. They currently aren't speaking, by Dad's choice..big mess right there) and finally informed her. Gran has broke down a bit, which I don't really blame her. She's already lost her husband and my uncle a few years back, and has no contact with my aunt. ( more drama there. fun.) So she's taking it hard and wants me to convince Dad to call her so they can talk. That's only going to take a miracle...
Still don't have really an update about my cousin David. His tumors have shrunk a bit, but as far as I know his cancer is still spreading as well and the situation similar to my father's...
Found out my cousins, their Uncle Rick (He's my Uncle David's brother) has cancer as well, and he isn't doing so great either.
Then to top off the wonderful week our family has been having, my mom got a call from my Great-Aunt Sharon with bad news. My Great-Uncle Lambret (He is Sharon's brother) has been diagnosed with Lung Cancer. He is also on the limited time left list...
So...all in all, really bad fucking week. Four relatives are dying from cancer. Fucking hell. I mean...we've already lost so many relatives these past 10 years (as in around 15 or so. Can't remember right off the top of my head.) many of them from cancer or heart-related deaths. It's like every other year people are dying in my family. To quote my mom from the other night "I feel like Typhoid Mary"......It's overwhelming and heart-breaking to handle....
