I’m back. It’s been awhile, though little has gotten better.. School is stressing me out, one of my close friends has gone distant, and the cherry on top: my stepdad (the only father I’ve ever had in my life) has Kidney cancer… I tried to tell my friend about it, and she flat out says “I don’t want any bad news.” And I’m dumbfounded, so I apologize.. For trying to tell her something important, what’s wrong with me? And how could a friend be so ignorant to another friend’s problem… Especially one as bad as a family member having cancer. Heh.. It’s easier to tell strangers on some website about my stepdad’s cancer.. Than it is to tell a good friend. I don’t know what to do… I just want to find support in a friend, but that seems impossible. Apologies that I’ve gone on a rant.

Wow, it’s hard to believe that someone who calls themself a friend can be that insensitive. Is it possible she’s got a lot going on in her life at the moment too? Maybe you can wait a little while and try again. Or maybe there’s someone else you can talk to?
Definitely sounds like the cancer news is the last thing you needed on top of the challenges at school.
