My sis does not deserve this at all... Edit : Gotta tell my dad 2moro...how?

[crisp82]

My sis doesn't deserve this. Just found out she has just over a yr to live. Don't know what to do.
Her Weblog. Just founbd out today.....

So scared I don't know what to do....

Edit: Apparently work is not the thing to do. My Temping company called me up and told me I got the sack because I overslept and didn't call in (not just because, not been a great employee as of late)...

 

[UnatcoAgent]

I am very sorry to hear about your sister my friend.

 

[DainBramaged]

I am sorry to hear that. Any details?

 

[conjur]

Sorry to hear.

I must be very tired or something but I don't see anything on that weblog that says she's dying? Did she have a stroke or suffer a traumatic brain injury? What happened?

 

[sillymofo]

Well, don't blame every thing on the big guy. I do believe that everything in life happens for a purpose, not that I don't share your sorrow. It's part of the big circle of life. Death is not neccessary a bad thing. We don't really know if this life we're living is just part of our journal, a chapter in a quest if you will. So the end could very well be the begining of a new chapter, a better chapter, or worse. We would never know, I've learned to accept it over time, when it's my time, I'd go quitely.

[ClueLis]

[Luden]

I'm sorry man

After taking your view on board 13 yrs ago, I abandoned it quickly.

The weblog has not been updated today, as we just found out. She has a brain tumtuor around the brain stem that is 'not worth the risk of operating on'....

6 months til symptoms show, just over a yr til...

I fuking hate life guys, I am so fed up of this sh!t. Last nights thread was me past the tolerance barrier....

 

[crisp82]

I really don't know what to do. I let my family go visit others (on request) as I knew I needed time alone, but I don't know how to cope with this.....

The last thing that should be happening right now is for you, and especially her and other family members to be losing hope.

Find hope. I don't care where, but you need to.

That's one thing that really disgusts me about doctors saying "You have 6 months to live."

Ha! Fsck you. :|

I wish your sister all the best.

 

[AnyMal]

Try and make the best of time's left. These memories will last you a lifetime, so make them happy one's.

Be strong.

Forgive my lack in Religion, and my faith in Science. Both have served me well for the wrong reason in the past.

 

[Kadarin]

All you can do is make the most of the remaining time she has available. Love her and let her know that her life has meaning in the hearts of you and your family, and in her friends. I wish you all the best.. Perhaps she will find some way to beat this.

 

[CaseTragedy]

i'm thinking you need to make your sis happy for the next year or so.
you can hate life after that.

sorry.

 

[niwi7]

find a better doctor maybe there is someway they can remove it or something

maybe some kinda new experimental surgery.....anything is worth a try if you KNOW the outcome will turn out bad if nothing is done

g/l man

Mate, I wish I could do more, cos I would. She doesn't know cos we haven't told her. Please don't judge on that, in her condition it would make her worse, and It is very hard for her to conversate after her stroke...

I know I post lot here about her being ill and me being depressed, please refrain from neffing / flaming here or on her weblog.

Thank you guys

It could be a lot longer than a year despite what anyone tells you.

My grandmother wasnt even given a year & she was with us for several years. She never lost hope and was an amazingly strong woman; Your sister can too be strong. No one 'deserves' this but sometimes we have to deal with these things despite how unfair they are.

Best Wishes,
Josh

 

[Eli]

Christ people. Some of you are already carving her headstone. Just because some doctor says she only has a year to live?

Fscking bullsh!t.

Get a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th opinion. See every damn doctor on the planet. But do not ever give up. Read books. Research on the internet. Change her diet. Have your house tested for carcinogens. I don't know. Try everything you can possibly think of.

What do you have to lose?

Thank you for the support.

I could understand it if this was 1st time round. To save you readin her weblog, she had cancer at 13, then a brain tumour 8 months ago, and now this.

I can be strong for other ppl, but I have no reason to be strong for myself. I am scared...

Maybe you should look around for something like this. Research all you can on finding out if there has been any research for a cure. Atleast, thats what I would do. For now, relax, and try meditation a few times in a day, get some exercise everyday, and take life as it comes at you. After some time though, I reccomend trying some new doctors and reading up on articles about this problem.

 

[BD231]

Don't feel alone in hating life man, I'm with you on that one as well as a sh*t load of other people in this world. I lost my dad to cancer not to long ago which was tough. I can't say loosing your sis is going to be easy at all, once someones gone and you know they're not coming back it really overwhelms you for a while.

The best thing you can do is just be with her, you two spending time together and really getting the sense of family going on will help with letting go.

Always remember you need to keep your mind straight, no matter how much life jerks you around, if you let it rob you of the future things only get worse. Good luck to you though, AT'ers will be here for you.

 

[Slammy1]

After telling us numerous times over the past 15 years that my father only had a few weeks to live, he's still alive. Doctors practice medicine, and they give you the worst case scenario. Why would they say it's too risky if she's going to die anyway? Seems like they're holding out hope. I recommend a second, third, and fourth opinion.
