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.

Clay,
It feels wrong to say welcome to a place like this because we all wish that no one would ever have to join again. Just know that we all are her for the same reason. I lost my husband on Dec. 3, 2010. I do understand just how you are feeling. Nothing is ever the same again. I am glad you found this site, as it has helped me a lot over the past year.
Hugs, Laura
Welcome Clay & Eleanor,
It's true I joined in November It's gotten easier to share my feelings. Just remember we all know what your going through so don't feel like you need to hold back. I lost my mother April 7th 2011 I waited 7 months to look for help. I'm thankful I found this site and everyone on it. I encourage people to join. It's the best thing I have ever done for myself. Also I love to help other people. We are all here for you both. Big hugs!

Clay I am really sorry you are in this pain too. My one love died with the dreaded C July 1st. I too have a house full of stuff, but not my Tom and it is so incredibly empty. I found after the first couple of times I posted that it got easier because I knew there would be people here who understood what I was saying even if the words were hard to say or hear. Can I send you a hug? If so, here is a hug of understanding and caring.
This is my first time commenting. I have been reading a lot of comments on here I just want to say that I can relate to everyone here
On September 27 2011 I lost my aunt to liver cancer these past three months have been tough I hope my Christmas won't be as tough. I miss her a lot i never had a chance to say good-bye it left a huge hole in my heart.

Dear Clay,
My Condolences. I am very sorry about your loss. I understand. I lost my love, Denise in sept 2009. i still miss her very much.
This is my first time here, I have been reading alot here about everyones lost and pain they are going though. I can relate too everyone here, I lost my love Lynn 5 weeks ago to cancer that we had been fighting since Jan.19 2011. I come home now to a house where their is nothing, it is so hard to write this. I miss my girl so much there is a hole in my life and it hurts soooo bad.
Sue,
I enjoyed talking to you too! Thanx for calling back :) Much love,
Melissa
cancer is a horrible disease that is killing to many americans like my father he fought to protect this country and what happens BAM he gets asian orange from the war and ends up with cancer..he didnt ask to die like alot of americans who get cancer,they dnt understand why they got it or why they got chosen i miss my dad terribly everyday all day and i hope one day to find a cure
Melissa,
How wonderful to talk to you last night! Love Sue
Hello friends,
I read the pain that you all of speaking of. I feel the same. I am learning to just be Sue. Just me..no mom. It is such a hollow feeling to be without her. This year I am going to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ in a way I never have before. It is no longer about the shopping, the cooking, the presents...maybe thats the way it should be. It is easier I guess when you are alone to NOT have to pretend you are OK when inside you are aching. I think about all of you and I love you and thank you for always being there for me when my own sisters were and are not. Your wisdom, advice and friendship has gotten me where I am right now. God bless you and keep your loved ones close. Our departed ones will embrace one another.
