Losing Someone to Cancer

This is for anyone who has lost somone to cancer. I lost my adopted Mom to breast cancer some years ago. She was everything I could have asked for. She loved me because I was just me. She also loved my family and children as if they were her own.

Kathleen - sorry you are having to worry about health bill along with everything else. Thoughts, hugs and prayers are being sent. God bless!!

Kathleen, I'm so sorry that you have financial worries on top of dealing with losing Rocky. Life is so unfair.

I have always appreciated Britain's National Health Service funded via direct taxation and founded via a Labour Government in 1945-48, /Democratic Government in the USA.  No bills, no financial worries whatsoever.

Kathleen...I can relate to your post .Bills still must be paid after we lose our spouse... If they don't get paid, everything gets repossed or shut off. Can you not sign up on Social Security for help. Most every one I know who have been left the bills and food, have been signed up and it is not all that much, but it helps .  Just a thought.  Will send prayers for you .

Kathleen, I know precisely how you feel.  My wife was my world, my soul mate, she made everything special, she had class.  When she passed, she took two thirds of me with her.

I live in the US too. I don't know what I'm going to do when the bills all start coming in. We are not wealthy or even comfortable...we are not even making it really...it's pathetic. I will have to file bankruptcy. I'm an office assistant. Those co-pays are going to be a lot I know. Plus I have my own health issues.

I feel like just getting a gun and ending myself when I lose him

Shirley, likewise to you, too.  Trouble is everyday now, just melts into another.

Comment by Shirley on May 27, 2015 at 12:39pm

Michael......Wishing you a great day.  and Prayers for you too.

Hi Shirley, yes I know about the American private health system.  This is why the UK's NHS is highly valued.

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
