I love this site you all make me feel like I am not alone, however somedays I feel like I can't think of anything but my parents. My Dad was just diagnosed with lc. non-sm cell. I am the youngest of 5 childrenn when I say youngerI am 13 than the sibling right befor me. I am a nurse and when we went to my Dad's first oncvisit they only wanted me and my parents in the exam room. my mom for some strange reason did want to stay. My dad asked about what stage he was in, and how long he has...I had known and didn't say anything I did not want to play doctor. anyway it was the hardest day of my life. watching my Dad's eye's and seeing him tear up...tryin hard to hold back all my tears..tyring to be "strong". I am also the only child who lives in the same town. I have been spending everyday with them helping keep there mind off things. Everyone says you have to be strong....for your mom. Sometimes it sucks being the strong one.

Right now life really sucks.... you are not alone we are not alone. why does life have to be so unfair? may the lord soothe your soul and and comfort you.

You were in my prayers today!

I am just wanting some support and friendship dealing with my fathers recent diagnosis. He is in stage 3 squamous cell lung cancer. My mom is a mess !!!
