I've lost too many loved ones to cancer...and I have many who are also survivors! You will never regret being there for her, but I know it's hard. Maybe her treatment of you is her way of dealing with her own fear...your strength is enough for both of you. Blessing, and courage.
You will never regret being there for her - not even if she never speaks to you again. This layout speaks volumes of a daughter's love. I really think you should include it in her scrapbook. Maybe she only saw the stalwart outside you displayed, and not how much you were hurting for her. Maybe this will be the beginning of healing - not just of the cancer, but for the two of you. You're in my prayers.
I am so with you on that one. Our family just lost a dear life long friend to cancer and he wanted to be home instead of in the hospital. It was so heart breaking to watch him suffer and you could not do anything to help. He is at peace now which is a pure blessing because no one should have to go through the pain of cancer and just wait to die if you are not cured after all of the chemo and radiation and medications. I was also going to do a lo about cancer, but I really am too heart broken right now to do it. So this page you have done came at the perfect time for me.. I feel for you and I am so sorry you and your mom are not speaking, that is very sad and i hope things come to a mends soon. God bless you..
I did this layout to finish my Mom's scrapbook about her breast cancer. It's been bugging me that since we are not speaking anymore that this has been just sitting on my shelf undone. I need closure to Mom, to her cancer...to the past. I thought I was going to add this to her scrapbook and decided I couldn't. It would just cause her to hate me more.
So...here it is...
This is how the story begins...paperwork! Pounds of it!
I don't know what it's like to get breast cancer, to go through chemo, surgery, chemo then radiation - oh, and all of the hospitalizations. I have no idea!
I do know what it's like to hear your Mom has breast cancer, to handle her, handle her treatment, tell her sons, to watch poison being shot into her, seeing her poked a million times when she begs to have it...stop! to be responsible for convincing her to continue treatment, to watch her hair fall out, to see her melt away because she can't eat anything, to be stronger than you ever thought you were because you can't fall apart....you can't feel anything cuz' if you do...you might fall apart and where would SHE be?
I hate cancer!
I hate cancer! I hate jumping through ropes to get it paid for, I hate chemo & radiation, I hate the smell of the hospital, I hate the pain in your head & heart when there is nothing you can do but watch, wait, hold your breath & smile like it's all ok!
