Today has been hard, it has been one week since the dr confirmed the four tumors they saw are cancer and sitting here writing a will as to how my children will be taken care of and how if anything is left will be split between them, (they are 4 and 3) plus with my family being double big asstwatdipweeds I cant count on them for help, even to the point I have been asked if I am not imagining the dr and the tests and everything going on (because you know once you have been told you have a mental illness you must have all of them....) and what not, have not been sleeping and when I do I have been screaming and waking everyone up, including the neighbors, the kids' dad was here today when I had a seiazer and that did not help my case, (and no the kids cant go to their dad until he completes his treatment and get stable) so depressed, not wanting to eat, but because of the kids I have to try and eat, forsed to go out and buy food when all I want is to do is sleep... wish I had a 100% you'll be fine, but all I got was "looks like it is not spreading, and you are not stage 4" but who knows....

So sorry you are going through this! That stinks about your family. With kids in the pictue I'm praying you will be able to pull through this. The doctors haven't given up it sounds like so you keep fighting too!

I am so sorry. It must be rough and traumatic. The only thing you can do is try to be there for your kids as best you can and take care of yourself. My prayers are with you. Do you have any friends around who can step in and help. I know it is often hard to ask for help, but you are in a situation where you need to.

unfortunatly no I dont I moved "back home" and the few friends I had in school now have their own lives and really dont have time to help me, but I am working on finding a home church and maybe finding a friend or two there, one of my conditions really keeps me from letting people in my house, and I dont feel safe when I am gone for too long, so it gets hard...

I am so so sorry you are going threw this. I know I cannot say anything to make things better. But it sounds like if you are looking for a home church that you at least have a strong belief system. If you don't mind I will be happy to pray for you. I can ask my church to pray for you as well. Just a anonymous acquaintance needs your prayers. If I know and you know and my church knows about your struggles then I know the Lord knows. Does the bible not say "Where one or more have gathered I am in the midst there of". I will certinly pray for you. With tomorrow being Sunday I will ask this unless I get word otherwise I will certinly pray. If I here from you to not pray then that is your choice and I will respect that. But I don't think that will be an issue. I wish you the best.
