I have also been watching the show the big c and although I agree there is nothing beautiful about cancer I must say it has helped me alot in knowing what my father must have gone through with all the complications and changes from the cancer he recently past away with. In the show I found myself seeing so many simularities to what my father went through that I felt I was for the first time seeing the cancer through his eyes and it's not beautiful at all just helpful in a way. Helpful in understanding their terrible and painful journey. It's not beautiful not at all.

The show "the big c" is coming to an end.  The main character is dying and the end has been described as "beautiful."  There is nothing beautiful about cancer, it must be stopped!!!  Now! Not twenty years or ten years from now, NOW.

Celena,

I know what you mean about not being able to reach out.  I have been a member here since for 3 years and have said very little.  It still doesn't seem that long ago that I lost my husband to testicular cancer.  It's still hard to say and I really have nobody that I can talk to about how I feel.  It's hard to open those emotions and so much easier to just put on the "everything is okay face."  I decided recently that I need to try support groups again and since we have none that I can find around me, I'm going to try online again.  I'm so sorry for your pain. [[[HUGS]]]

Hi Celena,  I am so sorry for your losses.  As a Mum I understand your pushing your feelings down and trying to take care of your family, but from my own experience I can say that eventually we have to work through our grief ourselves so that we can be stronger and better able to care for our family; so I encourage you to take time to grieve, to talk out your feelings with somebody you are comfortable talking with.  (((HUGS)))

Hi Jorgie,

     I am truly sorry for you loss, I don't have any answers about grief and death or the grieving process. Only that it hurts like hell, long term realationships are hard to find, and when you put all your energy into one love, one soul mate and best friend and then he/she dies, a very big part of you dies too. I told someone just the other day when Rick died I died too.  I truly mean that. I am not the same fun person, that I once was joy is hard to find, even with a month baby here.  I feel like I am in a fog and angry all the time.  I'll pray for you, that's all I can do to help.  Bless you and hang in here with the rest of us.

Jorgie,

That is true.

We are all very close. Very spiritual people with common goals in life. He and his wife (our dear friend) have been very supportive of us with my wife's struggles with cancer.

It's a club that none of us want to be a part of.

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
