Today I found out that my mother has cancer. It fucking sucks! I just found out 6 monthes ago that my 8 year old cousin Anthony has cancer!
Why, how, what?
Are the things I asked?
As my tears,
Fell against the cold, clear glass.
I don’t want to hear it,
Make it go away.
They’re lying mamma,
This can’t be true.
Why did this have to happen to you?
They say they have the cure,
And they tell me they are sure.
How do I believe it, I’m just a little girl.
They bring you through the door.
Why so many cords.
Maybe they fixed you, maybe there is more?
I want them to be done, they have had their fun.
You open your eyes, it’s my biggest surprise.
You mumble you love me,
And I start to crumble.
As I push you through the door in the big chair with wheels.
I know how it feels,
To remember something so terribly real.

I am so so sorry.
There are actually councillors who are specifically trained to talk to people going through this, it helps to talk to someone about it. Probably the hospital can direct you to some of them? No one should have to go through this alone.
My mum and dad both had cancer when i was 7 and 13 both serious scarey stuff but they are both still alive at the ages of 67 and 78 they beat it…cancer is a really scarey word but it doesnt always mean the worst try and stay posative for your mum i hope things go well for you and your family
