Cancer….

Posted by in Fear on Jul 23rd, 2010 | 5 comments

Last week I went to my grandpa died of brain cancer.

Last year my uncle Freddie had a close call with brain cancer.

A few days ago my uncle was rushed into hostipal because of his prostate. It could be cancer.

I’m only 14 but I’m terrified. What if I’m next? What if the reason I’m tired all the time and those weird scars on my back mean it’s my turn? I’m confused and afraid and I haven’t told anyone because they probably think I’m over reacting, but I’m scared. I don’t know what to do now. I need help.

    I think you’re a little traumatized right now, that’s normal.. Ask your parents to help you find a counselor or therapist, someone to talk to about your fears

    Dude, talk to your parents. There’s nothing wrong with being scared.
    And everything wrong with pretending your OK.

    Truth: All life ends, No one EVER in all of time has gotten out of life alive. Death is death and is nothing to be feared or worried about. You ARE going to die, but don’t worry about it to the point you forget to live your life.

    Dearest, Cancer is a very scary thing. You have every right to be scared and I know anybody wouldbe afraid of being next. Talk to your parents please. You know what, everyone in your family has this same exact normal fear. I promise you that you arent the only one who is thinking this.
    You cant live your life in fear of getting cancer or worrying about who is next. Start researching cancer fighing foods and take really good care of yourself and your body.

    Its a normal thing that you get scared, specially that cancer is an inherited disease, but most probably you are feeling this pains because your mind tells you so.
    Here is a website, where you can check your symptoms before counseling a physician or checking with your doctor http://symptoms.webmd.com/default.htm

    if you are satisfied with what you find then its fair enough, but if you still have some worries then immediately see your doctor so you can live in peace.
    Best of luck.
