i have a daughter called jade, whose mother died shortly after she was born. i brought her up. she is now six. i recently met a woman named rose, who is also a single parent. rose has a daughter called nicole, who is four. we got married and became a family. we adopted eachother`s children. adjusting to a new mother and sister haven`t been easy for jade. i had spoiled her a great deal. nicole had also been greatly spoiled by her mother. jade and nicole did not get along very well. nicole often tattled on jade and got her into trouble. jade thought nicole was an annoying little sister. unfortunately, jade got cancer and was in the hospital for ages. she had to undergo many treatments, including chemotherapy, which made all her curly hair fall out. when she got home, people gave her most of the attention, which made nicole jealous. when we go out as a family, jade might not be feeling well and we would have to take her home. nicole would cry and scream because she would want to stay and play. rose and i comfort her by saying” we have to go home now because your sister is tired. we will play later” nicole had now became greatly attention-seeking. how can i make things better? i love both my daughters very much and want them to be happy and comfortable. they both need to be cheered up. jade says she wants to go to disney world because she had never been there. we are not poor or anything, but jade`s treatments are very expensive and we don`t have enough money to sent four people to disney world. how can i make her wish come true?
this is hard, i am a 25yo who is in the process of finding out if my cervical cancer is back, i was treated for it 3 years ago and was never able to be put in touch with anyone to talk to, i live in a semi rural area and the only support group was for breast cancer, with women who many had children my age, so i was depressing them and it wasn’t helping me (different cancer different feelings) as part of the treatment they’ve talked about removing my reproductive organs - (i don’t have children) not something people with breast cancer in their 50’s really have to worry about. the do i or don’t i want kids question a single 22yo has to start asking themself.
anyway like i said i am waiting the next lot of tests to find out if it’s back and was wondering if anyone out there knew of any good support groups (in victoria - australia) or chat sites to help me through it again
thank you
We heard the news today of a couple faced with this news. The wife had cancer and without treatment would die, she than fell pregnant and decided to stop treatment to save her unborn child, thus sacrificing herself and their marriage on the chance her “unborn” would be saved. But what about any other children ? Would it be better to continue treatment and save the marriage and maybe have IFV later if need be ? Brave, but …
In Minnesota ( as I’m sure you’ve all read ) there is a 13 year old boy who has cancer and has gone with no treatment because the parents believe that there is a ‘natural’ way of healing through prayer and so they refuse treatment for him. Thank goodness that a court ordered that he MUST have treatment to help save his life. Now I am a Christian and believe prayer does work wonders but I also believe that the prayer should be said in addition to the treatment available.
What do you think about all of this?
I’ve become bitter of humanity and feel human beings are selfish people who only care about themselves. Here are some reasons why:
Why must there be homeless people? All they ask is for a simple job, even if they have to work below minimum wage. Think about how a homeless person feels for a minute. No food in your stomach, no bathroom, you’re freezing cold, no family, all you can do is cry.
Why must there be starving children? Unbelivable amounts of food are wasted. Can you imagine what it feels like to be 5 years old and starving to death? Having no parents?
A little child has cancer, her medical bills are over $50,000 for treatment. Why can’t children have free medical insurance until they are at least adults?
Litterally billions of dollars are being used to fight a war in Iraq when there are countless issues in America that are more important and deserve attention. The Iraq war serves no purpose.
The rich get richer and the poor remain poor or even worse.
Im trying to raise money for my uncle recently diagnosed with cancer. Any ideas? I need help please?
My uncle was just recently diagnosed with cancer and he has three children and a wife and no health insurance. He just had cancer last week and will start chemotherapy treatments in a few weeks starting at $30,000 a piece. Our family is trying to raise money and we would appreciate any support. Thank you.
