Cancer runs in my family, on both my mom and my das side- a little more promintent on my dads though.
Anyways to go on with my story monday of last week my mom filled me in that my dad has found a lump on his body. He didn't want to tell her so he waited til they were in bed about to fall asleep to let her in. On Friday he went to the doctors and they said that ther weren't sure if it was a lump or not so today he got a unltrasound done to see if he has cancer or just a cist.
I'm really really nervous about what's going on, even if he doesn't have cancer now, it could happen at anytime. in the last year and a half my dad has lost a brother and a sister to cancer. And another one of my dads brothers had had a couple of cancerous moles removed.
on my mom's side I know that cancer runs in the family and that some distant relatives have died from cancer.
I'll update as soon as I know what's going on with my dad
