- Hearing that your father has been diagnosed with cancer is difficult. Being a full-time college student and part-time caregiver during this time is even more difficult. In addition to managing schoolwork and family, Lex created the business UVA - an online cancer support community for cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers. This is her story.

My dad just got diagnosed with cancer a couple hours ago. I’m 23, he’s all I have left. Just looking for comfort. I keep everyone in my heart & prayers that’s dealing with these types of issues. I know everything will be okay eventually.
I turned 23 a week ago and my dad was diagnosed today. You aren't alone, I understand the feeling you have. ❤️❤️
@@jakeborgerding4621 my dad has always been strong & hes handling it so well. It’s helped me to be strong along the way. If you need to talk feel free to comment back or reach out to me. I’m sorry you’re in this situation, but I promise there is hope at the end of the tunnel, and even in spots inbetween. 💘 Sending you & your family so much love & prayers.
my dad was diagnosed today, i'm here with you
I’m 26 and my mom is currently on her deathbed with maybe two days left and no one tells you how mentally heavy this whole situation can be. At this point she hasn’t been conscious for five days and the doctors don’t give her much time left. It sounds cruel but I don’t want to see my mother suffer like this I would rather her stop her suffering. Death never has perfect timing and death during holidays never make those days normal again. It hurts my heart both physically and mentally seeing her like this so if anyone reads this please tell your loved ones how you feel before you can’t anymore.
My mom has cancer, too. I know it's easy to say and I'm not always in the right mindset myself. But really meditate on what fear can bring you. Really meditate on that. Then meditate on what is the best way to behave in your situation. May Allah bless you.
why did no one tell me how difficult it was going to be when everyone expects life to go back to normal right after my mom was diagnosed?!
I feel the exact same way. I took time off work when my mother was hospitalized. 1 month later she lost her battle and I haven’t been able to return to work since. I had no idea it would be this difficult. The world keeps spinning and I feel left behind. I hope that your mom is ok. 💓
@@alexpittman2496 i hope you're okay,i can understand your pain.
Same I cant do anything at this moment i want to cry allday
i am strugeling now with the same situation. my mom is diagnosed with cancer and i can't even eat . what should i do to just being able to continue my daily work and job
@@_lil.diva_2933 same :(
*To everyone seeing this that is fighting cancer or has a loved one fighting cancer. I love you, you are not alone. Keep going!*

@jessicaras4540amen sister 🙏🏻 I pray every night for my grandma to get better
Thank you so much
@@mikedrake4669 much love brother, stay strong 💪
Thank you. ❤. I needed this
Why is it always the best parents that get cancer? 😭
True. Same here. And I am an only child.
I can tell you the worst parents get it too. Which is so confusing. I don’t know how to feel. Being support and care for someone who never extended the same to you as a child
maybe because God needs them in heaven sooner then other people because how bigger their heart is
I hate it. I'm so sad and I'm so depressed. My mom is so ill I can't take it anymore. Why is this so painful? I really can't take this anymore.
My mother is recently diagnosed with macular edema and i haven't slept for 2 nights guys please pray for her recovery.
I sure do pray for her, I’m sure she will get through this
Wish her well and speedy recovery!
I'm praying...seriously
I pray for her
I pray for her
It was sooo hard when I came to know about my mother suffering from cancer... I kept crying so hard... I have never imagined my life without her and this news had shook my soul....soon her chemotherapy will going to start and I still trying my best to be strong....finally I can talk about this situation to other people without crying (like I m writing this).... It's her 4th stage...i don't know how much time she has...i haven't even asked from my father...i don't have courage..... I love her soooo muchhhh
sending u so much love and hugs❤️

I just found out my mother has it, stage 4 I think, liver cancer, it’s too late. This helps a lot
Im also facing the same situation my mother is also on stage 4 but I don’t know how all things gonna be ok like before ...
But also to face these worst situations under your examinations is ther worst situation i dont have any interest in anything just feel depressed
I was 19 when my mom passed away from pancreatic cancer. I am now 33 and now my dad has a rare form of primary liver cancer called Mixed HCC-Cholangio Carcinoma. I can’t loose my dad too 😭. Please pray for my dad, pleaseee 🙏
I will keep him in my prayers and you aswell I really hope he is better

I was just told tonight that my Mother has pancreatic cancer. Just a few hours ago. I'm trying my hardest to comprehend it.
Sending you & your family prayers, peace & comfort.
I just found out today too..my mom has ovarian cancer.
i just found out today that my dad has pancreatic and lung cancer and i don’t even know how to feel right now .
I am a doctor. Yesterday my father's gastroenterologist told me that he has pancreatic cancer that has metastasized to his liver. Yesterday I told my father that he is going to die. Yesterday my soul smashed into 1000 pieces. Yesterday my heart stopped when I saw him cry for the first time in my life. Yesterday all my hope died. And I can't do anything to stop this damn thing. Love today, tomorrow may never come...
Hi. My dad was diagnosed with the exact same thing - pancreatic cancer that metastasized to the liver, just this morning. I was sad but I was still able to go to work just fine. But now that it's night, and I'm about to sleep, it's only now that it's hitting me that I don't have much time with him but the thing is, he's in the other side of the world and I can't just leave because of my job. As of now, they haven't told any of my sisters yet because we're not sure how they'll take it. My other sister is in her last year of uni and the other one is only 14 years old. At this point, I'm just looking for comfort. As the eldest daughter, I have to be strong for my family. May I ask, is your dad undergoing treatment? Also, how are things for you right now?
my dad left within 6 weeks of diagnoe
I grew up with a terminally ill parent. I lost my Dad at 22. I'm 50 now and my heart still hurts.
Hi everyone! My dad was diagnosed with cancer in September of last year. Thankfully he’s is still with us today. I was 22 when we got the news. And I had never seen or heard anybody talk about the struggle it is for someone our age to start taking care of a parent. To see your dad not being able to sleep most nights because of the pain he is in. To go to doctors appointments and be worried of what they will say this time around. My family and I also went through the stage where all there was left was the hope of him getting into a trial treatment, unfortunately he wasn’t a candidate for any of the trials that we found.
You feel so hopeless after realizing there’s nothing you can do or even that modern medicine can do for him. God bless all of you reading this comment.
There are alternatives to look into: Rick Simpson Oil, Joe Tippens protocol, Jane McLelland protocol... don't give up

I’m in the same situation. 23. My dads 83 so treatment isn’t an option for his brain tumor. Sending you so much love. Thanks for letting me know I’m not alone
@@earthangel614 I'm terribly sorry to hear that. I'm 23 as well and my father was diagnosed almost 2 years ago. As he's older (68) cancer works slower on him. For two years I've been caring for him and now it's at a point where he can't even get up, let alone talk. Stay strong and I wish you the best.
My dad is similar, except I was 13 when he was diagnosed. He was diagnosed about a year and a half ago, except they kept giving him new treatments and then an experimental one for Novartis. The treatment didn’t work. None of the chemotherapy did. He’s terminal now and I can’t imagine living without him.
I lost my mom, my favorite person in the whole world, to cancer, when I was also in college. She was always so vibrant, happy, funny, intelligent, and extremely loving as a person. She was my biggest supporter and my hero. She was only in he's 50s and had so much to live more. She was the kind of person that enjoyed life to the fullest every single day. Life can be so cruel...
My mum just died from Stage 4 Colon Cancer yesterday. I have been crying ever since and I didn't even visit her on her last day. I feel angry, lonely and I regret I didn't spend more time with her. I'm only 14 so I don't know much but everyone please spend more time with your loved ones you never know what might happen.
Update: I’m fine now!

I’m 18 and in my last year of high school. A few months ago I found out my dad has cancer and it’s so hard. I’m really close with my dad and it’s so hard to see him go through this and my family doesn’t seem to have high hopes. It makes me feel so lonely because idk what to do. If you read this can you please pray from my dad, I can’t lose him.
Hello Sydnee, how is your dad doing? I just got news yesterday about my dad 😢
@@neil.es11 he actually passed away in July. When the cancer was caught it was already too late because he was already on the fourth stage. I pray that your dad gets better, it is really hard to go through.

Sydnee, I am so deeply sorry for your dad’s passing. I’m sure that he felt deeply loved and comforted by you and your family. I was 17 and a hs senior when my mother was diagnosed the first time. I know how hard it is. You are strong, your dad’s love is everywhere around you. I hope you’re doing well.
My father was diagnosed a few months ago with Multiple Myeloma & is hopefully going to have a stem cell transplant in May if all goes well. Prayers go out to anyone going through the same!!
My mother just got diagnosed with multiple myeloma last week, and idk what to do. All I do is cry and feel helpless…
@@pafiking stay strong put your trust in God to You are loved
My Mom.was diagnosed with Multiple myeloma over a year ago
She has had the stem cell transplant and chemo. It has been a tough road for her as the first chemo of a year was not as effective as it needed to be. Now she has had nefro tubes put in her kidneys and radiation to reduce a mass that is blocking them from draining...and onto a new chemo. At the end of this month we will see if this chemo is working and what next steps are. It's really hard to see my Mom having to be in the hospital as her body can't seem to stay regulated with calcium, magnesium and sodium levels...and now a staff infection to boot. She mostly sleeps and wakes up to eat or have short conversations. Then is wanting to sleep again. I am grateful you have posted and wish the best to you and your Dad.
My dad was just diagnosed with multiple myeloma 2-3 months ago. Praying for you and your family.
@@pafiking a total late reply but I hope all is going well! Strength strength strength!! It’s sooooo hard but we’ve got this. Just be there for her as much as you can 🤍
9/14/2020 was the day my mother told me my father is got cancer. Even though it was yesterday I'm still up crying and feeling hopeless and scared for my father. Goodnight you all. Hug all of your loved ones and tell them how much you love them.
sending u so much love and hugs❤️
I pray for your father to not feel pain
Update: at the ripe age of 75, he has beat chemotherapy and proton therapy and is now cancer free. Hallelujah now, to just get that weight back on him. In the last 2 months he has gained 16 pounds ❤
@@justinreid8422 good to hear i hope my mom can recover the same
I'm praying for your mother @mistur Jay. Bless you!
Just seeing this, and reading your comments makes me feel less alone. My mom was diagnosed with small cell lung cancer 1.5 years ago. We just found out on Monday, 3/14/22, it has metastasized to her brain; 17 tumors, something I can't even comprehend. She starts whole brain radiation tomorrow, which may buy her and us some time. It's all-encompassing, I can't think about anything else. I can't sleep, eat, or enjoy anything. I couldn't imagine dealing with this emotionally as a teenager.
I’m 16 and yesterday I found out my father will die from lung cancer. I am very scared but wanted to tell you that I am sending you my best wishes and I am grateful you shared this story
My mum also have the same cancer
It is the second time she has it now
My problem is I'm quite young
I'm 13 and now fine school hard as I feel like I'll collapse into tears every second
However I pray, and I pray for your mum and everyone who has cancer

@@jasonpeterparker6725 Hello my father has already passed away. Also maybe you should consider taking a grammar class, or use spell check before commenting.
You could start with learning the correct words, spelled correctly as followed : invented, machine. In addition I thought you might know that in the English language, we do not use two greetings to begin a sentence. We don't use Hey and Hi in the same sentence back to back. Furthermore, We do not begin sentences with And; and we do do not begin a sentence with I. I , not i, referring to oneself is always capitalized in any form of the English language. Lastly, we end sentences with a period.
@@nineoneoh Thanks for the correction, I thought it will help you. Sorry about your father.
I find it very ironic I work in oncology and never expected my Mom to become patient right in front of my eyes to this day.
My mum was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer a week after my 18th birthday, its been almost a year and watching her health deteriorate has been soul-crushing. She's too young to leave this earth, I'm too young to lose her :(
I’m so sorry. My dad was diagnosed with PanCan back in February and it’s been earth shattering. I can’t even begin to wrap my head around him not being here…
@@charliemvrphy She's slowly been improving! she's the strongest woman I've ever met, I think the best thing we can do as family members is take it a day at a time, let yourself grieve them even if they're still here. Its okay to take time out for yourself!
Same here, My dad just got diagnosed 2 days ago. I just can't imagine loosing him at the age of 14
I'm so sorry. My mom lost her battle to pancreatic cancer this year in January. I'm sending love and light to you and your family. ❤️
@Joshua Cruz I'm so sorry about these news. It's not an easy journey, but you will pull through. You have it in you. I am keeping you in my prayers.
my dad. I never imagined anybody in my family can have cancer.
2018 i was 18 and i lost both my parents to cancer within a year, its hard but the truth is we CANNOT stop
Much love and blessing to u ❤️🙏
God bless you🙏🏽❤️ you are seen, and heard. Thank you for your transparency 💛
My father was diagnosed with Leukemia recently and I am just so worried. I am homeschooled and my mother teaches us while our dad works, I am so worried on what the future would be without him. As of now, I am 13 and am shocked. Please pray for me and anybody else going through this. We take our time with our loved ones for granted, please cherish every moment you have, because it might be the last. Also, if you have any sites or videos that I can get information about Leukemia, please leave it in a reply. God bless all.
Hi! Im sorry that you're going through this. I understand the pain that this causes and fear. For you to go through this at at young age I'm very sorry! I'm going to be praying for your strength, your dad, your mom and your entire family. I pray that GOD holds you so close especially when you feel afraid. Please just know that GOD can do all things including healing your dad. He will fight for your dad! Please try to stay strong, hold on to hope and faith!
May God grant him cure🙏🏼
I’m here in search for anything to calm myself down. I don’t know what to do anymore. My father has been battling stage 4 liver cancer for over a year now and he was just okay 3 weeks ago and now ever since he came back from the hospital. It’s so hard for me to look at him in the face. The Doctors have given up on him and taken away all chemotherapy and treatments to help him. All we have left to to pray for a miracle but we’ve been reaching to God for so long I’m wondering if he’s abandoned us. They said he doesn’t have much time left, as we keep on praying day by day he seems to only get worse and worse. I’m so afraid.
I guess the one thing that has been haunting me. Ended up finally catching up. Rest easy now father. 03-13-77 - 06-27-21

@@audriiiiroberts3030 I relate. I’m 16 and my father has lung cancer. Yesterday I was told he is going to die. I can’t grieve yet but I am grieving. I don’t know what to do. I have to put on a brave face but I do not feel brave. I am very scared. Much love from me coming to you and your family.
My dad was recently marked terminal and I don’t know what to do. I can’t stop crying. I can’t lose him.

@@marianne9691 thank you, praying for the best for you.
My dad had been fighting stage 4 Oral cancer from 2 years with the help of his STRONG MINDSET and WILL but now it seems that he is tired of fighting coz despite fighting the cancer and the Pain it cause he is not seeing any significant improvement in him. Today he told that he couldn't fight it anymore and doesn't want a chemo injection but an injection that would give him a peaceful death 😭😭😭 ... couldn't express it in words that how much devastating was to hear that from a person who used to have such strong will and was inspiration for others when he was fit
My thoughts, feelings and grief are not limited to thing that I've said above but a lot more ... can't express my and my situation from last 2 years in words 😣
@@trishulconsultant8236 spend as much time as you can with him. My dad passed and I was by his side.
My dad. The most beautiful, kind giving soul. My best friend. He is all I have. He just got diagnosed with pancreatic cancer today. There are no words
My father was diagnosed with colon cancer when I turned 16. Nothing had felt more devastating than seeing my dad hooked up to wires and IV in a hospital bed. I’m still 16 and this all still very new, every day all I can think about is seeing my father in that hospital bed and it’s been keeping me up at night. To anyone going through similar experiences, the people in your life fighting cancer needs you so please be strong and patient. I hope telling others will help get that message through to me too because I have trouble with that sometimes.
I’m sorry to hear that Kevin. You sound pretty wise. You’re not alone. My dad just got diagnosed with it too and I found out today. It hasn’t really sunk in for my brother and I yet. I wish you and your fam the best. ❤
My mom has stage 4 gastric cancer along with other organ issues. She's battling every day , going through pain and sleepless nights. I was heartbroken when she told us she was diagnosed , she was crying her heart out hugging my dad that she doesn't wanna die and that scene just destroyed me and I've never been the same since . She was given 2 years max even with chemo and it's been over a year now but she's very weak and suffering . Please pray for her, I believe God is with her every step of the way . Please pray for that horrible disease to vanish away from mom 😔
I Hope with all my Heart Ur mom Will get Better , i Will pray for her and all Ur family ! Ur beatiful and blessed never forget It much love ❤️

I was at work last year when the doctor had called me with the diagnostic news - I wasn't even supposed to be the emergency contact or anything, but I had to be the one to tell my mom - after finishing my work. My mother's health isn't good either, and I became the caretaker for both of them while navigating high school. It's still the same, and we're waiting for another PET scan in this March hoping for good news. I turn 18 in about a week, but every night I cover my ears and turn my music up so I can't hear him coughing or my dad groaning in pain and I hate it so so much, I'm still a kid, I already lost two years of high school to COVID and with college applications I felt/feel like I had/have no support.
stay strong! I'll pray for you!
I'm so sorry I didn't pay more attention to you mom. I miss you very, very much and I remember you every single day. I love you.
@@user-hq5ps7dx7d you will be there and she will know that you love her and she will love you forever.

This was more depressing than it was inspiring.... I've never seen someone make a sales pitch out of their parent-diagnosed-with-cancer trauma-- and here I was trying to get some help because I'm hurting
It's been 1 year completed of my father's death due to cancer I am still living with his good memories which I spent with him In his last year before his passing away. I love my dad and all of the berave cancer petient who are surviving with cancer. I respect their family members for be with them in their last days.❤
i just found out today that my dad has cancer. idk how i’m supposed to feel n talk n act around him. i feel too awkward asking about the specifics of his diagnosis and just generally even acknowledging it when i speak to him. i’m also in a really bad place rn mentally and i’ve been struggling w depression and anxiety for a long time and idk if i can deal with this too. i’m so tired
Im sorry to hear this. How is your father doing?
are you okay? please hang in there
My mom has parkinson and I don't even know if I should feel lucky or not by reading here.
Why life is so hard?
We got problems all around in our life and then, in the middle of problems, parents getting sick strike you like a thunder in the face.
So so sad. A Prayer to everyone
my dad was diagnosed with cancer last january. I’ve been devastated, praying but crying all the time and acting normal in front of him. but it’s especially hard when my mum is very negative and tells me the worst that could happen…
I’m going through the same with my dad. I just found out he has cancer and it’s a situation where he doesn’t crave eating . And he’s always in pain . And that screams stage 4 cancer . And my own mother is in denial … so everyone grieves differently. My father even called it that he hopes it isn’t cancer , he refused to check the doctor for a long time . My face looks so blank bc I can’t force him to take meds nor can I rush chemo . Smh I drag my feet to visit & it is mentally exhausting. But just remember they are going through a lot . And you being strong actually helps . Gives them motivation.
@@abitofeverythingbynastassi6273 I hope both of our dads beat cancer and live healthy lives. let’s stay strong! my dad is getting checkups again after trying a new diet for 2 months, so far the doctors said that chemo is necessary but my mum suggested that diet first.
I understand that it's hard that your mum is very negative. However maybe knowing about my perspective may help alleviate this feeling. My whole family were optimistic about my dad, given the doctor said that my dad can live for a long time. Yesterday, I lost my father and it hasn't even been a year since his diagnosis. Be prepared for the worst rather than believing in false hope. Once he died, we were all shocked and in absolute disbelief. An overwhelming wave of emotions that cannot be described perfectly with words hit you like a truck.
@@xyriumelement I'm very sorry for your loss and praying for all of you. It must've been a really big shock for you and your family. I feel like both are extremes that make the person's family worry a lot..being pessimistic makes you feel as if that person already passed away in your head and you go through stages of grief while the they're still alive, while being optimistic is as you mentioned. In the end I feel like these are different ways of how humans cope with the harsh reality...may we be united with our loved ones in heaven.
God bless this young lady. You don’t know what it feels like until you have to go through it. It’s a very lonely feeling.
My dad first got diagnosed with apocrine adenocarcinoma when I just turned 16. Turning 18 now, told by doctors that they aren't really sure if anything they do will really work. I hope he'll at least see me graduate high school.
september 22, 2019 my mom was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, she died on december 3, 2019. that was the hardest thing i've ever had to go through. yesterday i was told my dad has cancer that has spread all over his body. i have no clue what i'm going to do.
If it's any ''help'' to you, I lost my dad when I was 15, today I'm 24 and my mother is fighting with cancer for the second time...I don't know what I'm going to do either, I don't even know what I'm doing and how should I feel right now
I lost my dad to pancreatic a month ago. i dont think anyone is every ok again after witnessing their parent deteriorate
Do you know if pancreatic cancer that has been removed by surgey before it spread anywhere can be cured?my mum is starting chemotherpay tommorow and i really dont know what to expect.
@@andrejkujundzic8611 if caught early, pancreatic cancer can be very treatable. It usually isn't found until late stages when it becomes symptomatic, but if it hasn't spread I'd say she's very lucky and you should both be very grateful and hopeful ❤️
Thank you for sharing your story❤️ you reminded me to keep going and living my dream. I had a very similar situation four years ago. My Dad was diagnosed with cancer. I was 14 when i lost my Dad on February 2018. I told myself to keep going and archive my dreams. If you're reading this pls don't forget that your loved by someone❤️

youre doing great things, your father would be so proud 💕
My dad died of brain cancer a week ago. It was hard to see his health failing so quick. He died within 5 weeks. We tried everything but it wasn't to be. It's left a huge hole in the family. He was my best friend. I miss him so much. This was 4 years after he was I'm hospital with colon cancer
My mom got diagnosed yesterday with stomach cancer, I’m 25, and I swear I have never met anyone with such a caring, selfless, pure soul as her. I will fight this with her, and will give my all as a caregiver
Your mom, you and your family are in my prayers. I hope you and your mom find relief and comfort during this period of grief and uncertainty. I’m almost 24 and I found out a week ago my dad was diagnosed. He’s my rock and my best friend. I pray that their pain is lightened and lifted and they are protected and have peace in their hearts through this. Sending love ❤️
This is what happened to me at 15 years old when my mother was diagnosed with Colon Cancer. I'm glad the doctors at Dana Farber gave her 2 years of life ❤️ She sticks with me everyday and I try to think of the goods times and not the rough ones.
Im so sorry for you❤❤❤ i am 11 years old and my dad has cancer to and will die soon😭😭
To the person live recording this video, I salute you. I hear your emotions through the recording. And I'm sorry for the weeping you went through. BUT, It was purifying as you weeped and cried through it huh.?

I was just told today that my father has cancer and it has spread all over his body. Ii feel broken and scared. Please pray for me.
... I'm going through the same thing rn, you just have to be strong.. ❤️
I've been through it a lot. You got this 💯💪🖤
My mom is diagnosed with cancer now it's the last stage
I always feel terrible reading, seeing, hearing stories of people who have a lost parent to cancer but despite the odds, acted so admirably as a care giver and then honoured their life by living theirs to the fullest. I didn’t, I wish my mum had a better daughter than me
I found out yesterday that my dad has cancer and I honestly don't even know how to feel. I lost my mom when I was 23 and now at 31 I can't imagine losing my dad. Thankfully I'm close with my dad and my brother but I'm heartbroken for my dad. I'm just in shock today!

my mommy was diagnosed with colon cancer 5 days ago, it's insane how it shakes your whole world in just a short time, it's so scary and all I can do is scream cry because I love her so much, meanwhile she has a huge smile on her face and able to make jokes to the doctors and nurses, this woman is so strong I have no words.
I just want to be there for her 24/7 and with distance being a factor it makes things extremely hard. i feel like a failure because I can't leave where I am.
I can visit as much as possible but I feel like I've let her down already. me and my brother came to visit already and the worst part wasn't even the news it was leaving her, leaving her sitting there in the hospital bed looking so fragile and I just wanted to pick het up and hold her. her words were so loving and I couldn't help but caress her cheeks and kiss them tell her how much I missed her and I will be back, let's be strong. have faith and we will be there every step of the way. it killed me walking away I couldn't stop crying. I'm looking forward to seeing her again in a much healthier state and shinning beautifully.
i just found out my mum had cancer literally 20 minutes ago, I am in shock right now, i have to wait until my sister gets home to tell her, i have two baby brothers, 13 and 6. i literally am going to spew.
Yesterday my brother told me that my dad hasba chest cancer and a brain tumour which made him lose control of half his body....this isn't even the worst part because he was smoking for 30 years and tbh at one point I knew this will happen but the worst part is that no one knows he got cancer except me and my brother...we still haven't confronted my sisters and mother but I can't handle seeing them break down more than they are already.... I'm 18 which means I have SAT this year and all I want is for him to see me get accepted into med school...If you're reading this I beg u to pray for him to get well and for me to make him proud to see his daughter becoming a doctor
I lost the most important person in my life. My grandma, who has raised me and gave me everything. She has raised me like a princess and never made me cry. She suffered so much since December 2019 till July 2023. I lost her forever. And just today, my grandpa has been diagnosed with colon cancer 💔 i feel helpless, depressed, frustrated. They are the most merciful people i have ever known. I don’t know what to do anymore to help him. He has just lost his wife and now he has been diagnosed. Good thing that the doctor told us its early and has not spread.
I experienced this situation. I’ve already lost my person. I understand how people don’t care.
my dad got diagnosed with cancer today and i am a crying wreck.
I need to get this out... I'm 19 years old rn, I lost my dad to a blood clot shooting through his heart on Nov 5, 2021, and this morning I found out my mom has been diagnosed with stage 3 cancer... In the moment I didn't think of asking which type of cancer or how long she's known, the only thing I could think of is the unbearable pain my dad's death had caused me and that I'll have to go through that again. We don't have the money for treatment, and now, at age 19, earning minimum wage, I know that eventually, I will need to take care of my mom, become my little sister's (11) guardian and take care of her as well, try to provide a good future for her, and for me and my girlfriend, all while trying to cope with everything that's going on... I am lost... I don't know which way to turn... I don't know how long she has left and I don't know how I'm supposed to do this...
please stay strong. i know life seems unfair and unrepairable right now, but please hang in there. you’re a very strong person, being able to deal with so many drastic situations at the same time. your mom will be okay, and i trust that you’ll be a good guardian to your sister. sending love and prayers. one day in the future when you look back at your now self, you will be proud. so keep pushing forward. you can do it.
Sending u all the prayers and love i can ! Ur a beatiful Person and Wish u the best in Life ❤️🙏
The cancer does not harm only the patient, it destroys every person of the family 😭. I lost my father to bile duct cancer 😭😭and it's extremely hard to get going 😫😖
its so hard i lost my dad too, but i know my dad is here at my side protecting and giving me strenght, like your father is at your side now!! and im ABSOLUTELY SURE that he is SO SO PROUD OF YOU❤❤ you are an AMAZING PERSON WE CAN KEEP THIS UP
My Dad was diagnostic with cancer he 88 years my scare, I have a lots of pain, he has no idea what's going on, I just give him more love ....
i hope you, your father and your family are doing better right now. life is hard. you’re very strong to have faced such a difficult situation. please hang in there. sending love and prayers ❤️
My dad was just diagnosed with colon cancer - the same cancer that took my aunt’s father’s life 10 years ago. It’s been hard. I’m scared. My dad is my biggest supporter and hero. I’m still trying to go to school and want to have him at my graduation and for him to see his granddaughter grow up. He’s only 52. It’s hard.
Hello I don't know what's wrong withmy dad and he is In the hospital right now, I been crying for 3 days. I'm praying for your dad . It's not easy but I believe in God and jesus. I pray your heart is strong
i hope the both of you are doing well. please stay strong and hang in there no matter how hard life is right now. sending prayers and love to the both of you ❤️
I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer in June this year. She lived a healthy lifestyle, neither drinking nor smoking. She felt the first pain at the end of March, took a series of tests in April, was diagnosed in May, and died in June. Too fast and not enough time to create happy memories. Soon after my mom died, I felt the shift. That whatever happens, I'm never gonna be the same again.
Prayers for you and your family. Please try your best to keep going. Your mother will be so proud.

Thankyou so much for what you do i lost my mom a few days after you lost your dad dec 24 2018 . I had just turned 18 a week ago . I felt so alone being the second oldest and having to tell my younger siblings she wasn’t coming home was the worst . How do you explain to a one year old mommys not coming back .
April 18, 2021. That’s the day the result for my mom’s screenings came back. Stage 2 uterine cancer.
Hey, how's your mother doing now?
My mom was diagnosed with cancer and she’s currently in a hospital 4 hours away. I got to visit her today and it took all my strength not to cry. i’m the oldest sibling with two younger sisters. I haven’t aten or slept well. The doctors say that she’ll recover because they caught it early and it’s not severe. But i’m still worried sick. I feel so bad because she’s so calm and has hope that god will heal her and i’m over here overthinking and panicking. It just feels like I have all this pressure on me
I am so glad I found this my father was just diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer this week I just found out and then I found this video. I will be looking up that organisation is soon as possible.
What was the symptoms
Me too :( is he ok ?
@@comingforya3123 i hope you’re doing okay, please stay strong you will be okay
im so sorry to hear that and i hope you will find some peace. he’s in a better place, sending love ❤️
This maked me cry so much.. this journey is just so hard.. thank you for sharing your journey
My mom was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma oral yesterday. I jus typed in the search bar “my mom has cancer. What now” and this came up. Needed
My dad had been fighting stage 4 Oral cancer from 2 years with the help of his STRONG MINDSET and WILL but now it seems that he is tired of fighting coz despite fighting the cancer and the Pain it cause he is not seeing any significant improvement in him. Today he told that he couldn't fight it anymore and doesn't want a chemo injection but an injection that would give him a peaceful death 😭😭😭 ... couldn't express it in words that how much devastating was to hear that from a person who used to have such strong will and was inspiration for others when he was fit
My thoughts, feelings and grief are not limited to thing that I've said above but a lot more ... can't express my and my situation from last 2 years in words 😣
I wouldn’t know what to do without my mother she is currently just got diagnosed with cancer and she is the first person I think of ever is my mother since she is the person I see every hour and to think I’m 12 and the fear I have if I loose her at this age that it’s badly her cancer I would be lost but I hope to be with her every moment I can and help her
Keep faith! I believe in you and manifest that your mom will recover. Be positive!
I know your mom will com out victorious. My prayers are with you 💜
I’m twelve as well, my mom got diagnosed around 8 months ago. She was doing great but now more cancer is growing and it randomly happened. They said they can’t do surgery so she has to do chemotherapy again. If that doesn’t work they can’t do anything. Tbh I’m scared. But I try not to show emotion.
@@sinewavs1995 is your mom doing better 🙏🏽?
@@sinewavs1995 i hope you and your mom are doing well. you are both very strong. sending loves and prayers, stay strong ❤️
I'm 15 and my mom just got diagnosed with skin cancer. I've never felt so low in my entire life. I've dealt with suicidal thoughts before because of bullying but man, my mom getting cancer just made me want to throw myself off a cliff. It left me a big hole in my heart. We don't even know how much time left she has. I'm destroyed.
I am so sorry, my mom is diagnosed with lung cancer there's nothing we can do we must stay strong and spend as much time as possible with them.
my dad has been diagnosed with skin cancer 2 weeks ago, hes all i have basically and i cant imagine losing him, only other family I have is my mom whom i love very much but she didnt raise me like my dad so in a sense I feel like im losing the only person thats always been by my side. Im sending love to your family and your mom and hope she will overcome this ❤❤
I can feel the pain because i am going through all this the only difference is that i lost my father at 16 due to mouth cancer i also had made promises to him of fulfilling my all responsibilities completing his dream not to fighting with my sibling and to take care of family I'm trying my best to come out of all this and to focus but everything is sooo much hard this road is the toughest road my all achievements would be incomplete without my father nothing can give me that happiness as if i lost my entire happiness with my father this soul now have become machine which have to work and that's it i miss my father everyday ..
I just cant imagine my mom in 5 more years
I'm staring college May 1st and my mom was just diagnosed with colon cancer her first round of chemo is April 28th. I am terrified for this journey that we are about to embark on, but thank you for putting this out here. It truly hit home for me.

@@corvim688 thank you so much for your kind words, I appreciate it
My father was diagnosed with lung cancer about a month ago now, I’m 18. The doctors told us it was a rare cancer that they hadn’t seen in a very long time, it spreads three times as fast and is very aggressive. I’m an actor who is just starting out in the acting industry, and I feel as though I’ve been cheated. My brother is 12 and is a bit too young to understand, while my mother and I are doing everything in our power too help my dad. I help him walk to the bathroom, cook meals and do everything he is unable to do. As I wait, and wait, and wait for some sort of answer this video has helped me to believe it that I need to keep going. It’s everything my dad would want me to do, he’s my number 1 supporter and always will be. I love him so much, and I really thank you for telling me what I needed to hear

I am praying for your strength 🙏🏽
I'm 15 and today after coming home from school I saw my mom crying, my dad was as usual. Then I found out that dad got diagnosed with cancer. I started crying so hard. I am not even that close with my dad. pray for my dad.
my mom beat cancer when i was two, a ct scan revealed that it has come back 17 years later. we don’t know how bad it is yet but i am so broken
please stay strong, i hope shes doing better now. how is she?
On September 4 I clocked in at work. I had a terrible migraine and felt dehydrated and just wanted to go home to take some painkiller and get some sleep. Finally it was 10 pm and I clocked out of my shift and left to catch the 2 long bus rides home. That's when I learned that my father had prostate cancer... I haven't really slept since, I've been crying in bed and crying even right now as I'm listening to this Ted Talk. The coming weeks are going to be tough. This is SO hard... :( I hope he beats cancer. I'm staying optimistic for when he starts his chemo.
I'm really scares because my mum is going to be told if she has cancer. I'm so scared. I love my mum so. Much.
I never knew going through this would feel so alone. I don’t have a dad, and my grandpa is the closest thing to a dad I’ll ever have. He just got diagnosed with multiple myeloma which is bone cancer. I am just so angry and mad and I don’t know how to precess this.
wish i would have had a dad to feel that way about
Found out my dad has stage 4 colon cancer 1 day ago!!!! This is by far the worst feeling in the world!
Is your father doing better now?
he is doing great!!! on chemo since diagnosis, , but Nothing is spreading or growing!!!!
My mother was diagnosed w metastatic lung cancer in 2020 then a year later we found out my father had glioblastoma. He had a successful removal but it can come back anytime. My mothers condition only seems to deteriorate even tho she is currently receiving immune therapy after radiation and chemo. Its really hard to keep being strong and cheerful for them.
How is your mother? My father is on immunotherapy and not seem to be doing well.
I was in denial for few months tryna keep positive, dad and cancer just didn’t go together in my mind … but it’s been 5 months and I’m feeling coming to the realization that it’s real … worst part is seeing them going thru chemo … he’s going thru phases right now he’s very anger … we don’t have the best relationship so knowing we aren’t good hurts .
Her life is my life what she explained...my father had lung cancer when I was 17 ...he was the only earning man of our family and he is on bed now ..he can't even walk by himself ...I don't have any job ...to spend money on his treatment...oh God how miserable life u gave me....my studies are becoming as low as my hope to live...

Cough ,weakness, pain in chest

I lost my mom in 2018 to cancer. I will turn 30 this year and I still break down whenever I get sick asking for mom and why she left me here alone. I am 100% aware it was not on her but I get childish and I ask for her to come back.
The wound doesn’t seem to heal especially when you live alone abroad with no support system.
Worst feeling ever , you feel helpless the fact that you can't do absolutely nothing.
I'm going through exactly the same and I'm so sad I have no idea what to do
