I Have Lost People I Love From Cancer
In the last five years, I have lost both my only sister and my Mama. My sister had a "coronary event" (not specified, and her hubby had her cremated, so no further investigation.
Mama passed from liver cancer this month last year. It has been a terrible loss, for me. It has affected me more than I ever thought it would, but she had been in pain (not from the cancer)for years and years. She had lupus, RA, high blood pressure, osteoporosis,GERD, RLS,and a few more minor conditions. That is all over for her, now, and that is the ONLY good thing that happened. I won't go into family squabbles at this time, but suffice it to say it was not pretty.
I was born when she was only 17, and so we were very close. I miss her so very much. There just like a great big crater in my heart. I am still struggling with this loss on top of my moderate to severe depression and anxiety. Many, many things...some benign, some intensely personal and important (at least to me)
This past five years has been a period of real loss in so many way.
Thank you for reading. :)
