What the ********.

Kaze v2

what the ******** am I supposed to do?

Spend time with your mother. rolleyes


To reiterate though what the ******** you didn't really think about your mother having cancer? What were you thinking, that it was just a little bit of cancer no biggie they cure that s**t all the time?

No biggie?

people die from this stuff all the time.

My grandma died from breast cancer...

how would you like it if your mom was going to die from breast cancer?

I bet you would be sad.

Breast cancer is one of the most survivable cancers out there and usually when someone is diagnosed too late, it's generally the woman's fault for not checking her breasts.

all of you guy's are giving him Attention. He will stop if just ignore or block him Simple is that. and advice to the user made this thread and talk to you're mom and talk about cherished times. Don't talk about cancer or anything it'll make her upset just talk to her about the past.

ok my main problem with breast cancer is that it is the only one that is commercialized with all the
'breast cancer cookies' 'breast cancer umbrellas' really there are more deadly cancers
really ladies losing ur chest is not as aweful as losing a leg or life... yea urs is dieing but most only lose the ches or get chemo

Chemo isn't a fix all.

And actually if you're not someone that has to go through with having your breast removed and then live with it everyday, You don't know how hard it is.

Breast cancer isn't becoming commercialized, the cookies, ribbons and all of the other things you see are for support and to go towards funds for finding ways to cure it. Annnd they do have ribbons and other stuff for all the other kinds of cancer too. The only reason people make such a big deal out of it is because a lot of woman DO get it.

u dont need ur chest except if u have a baby and that there are still alternatives.. losing ur leg would be a lot wors and a loooooooot harder to live with... yea prostate cancer and i know where the funds aregoing to .. but the public need to be aware that there are waaaay more then those cancers

plus yes it mainly is the fix for now, its destroying the cells that are cancorous.. all they did for my cancer was chop it off

[Legend Of The Moon]

My grandmother had cancer for over three years before she died.
At first, it was a terminal diagnosis, but she pulled through and seemed fine.
She lived happily and actively, going on and off chemo, but never bedridden.
Quite suddenly, she began having problems breathing, and was admitted to the hospital.
They discovered that the cancer had spread to her lungs and the fluid that had built up wouldn't drain.
My grandmother made the decision to go peacefully in the hospital.
No one was expecting it.
She had been fine a couple of weeks earlier.
That was six months ago, and my family and I are still not over it.

These situations are never easy. You start to forget the person is even sick, until the disease takes a turn for the worse.
It's normal for you not to know how to feel. After knowing the facts for so long, of course you're not prepared for the change. No one ever is. All you can do now is be there for your mom and support your family. It's not going to be easy, and it sucks. But you'll get through it.

im sorry you feel that way talk2hand

It doesn't matter if it serves no purpose besides to feed babies. But for a lot of women that have had reconstruction, it's still really hard. Sure it's not as deadly as some of the other types that doesn't mean it doesn't need attention brought to it.

My mom has colo-rectal and everyone knows of that one when you mention it, even though it is rare.

And I'm really sorry that you went through that. Though losing it is a lot better for a person and it may of been easy for you. But not all women take it as easily.

Oh, oh. I thought you said you had breast cancer and had your breast reconstructed. Sorry.

There isn't such a thing as to much attention when it comes to stuff like that. It serves a good cause. And like I said, there's plenty of awareness for all the others. I've been reading and going to an oncologist office long enough to know.

The only reason there so much is because of the percentage of women a year that get it.

Kaze v2

I was browsing at Walmart today. As any normal college student would, I called my house and asked my dad for money and asked how my mom was. She has had breast cancer since I was in fifth grade. I never really thought anything about it until this year.

So I called home and my dad transferred some money into my account and said that the last little surgery my mom had for her constant stomach pains didn't work. She has had three of those now and none of them did anything. So she is at home, downing pain pills and being fed through an IV. This is the first time I've ever had the feeling that she might be leaving soon. A long time ago when she was really feeling bad and we were in some money trouble, she told me that they thought her life insurance would pay for college. I thought she was joking until now. I'm truly frightened about what is happening.

I don't know what I'm supposed to do. My girlfriend keeps telling my to spill my feelings, but I'm not sad, mad, or happy. Nothing has happened yet, so I don't have a reason to be sad. My roommate is out for the weekend, so my girlfriend is going to stay the night to keep me company, but really, LI, what the ******** am I supposed to do?

hope she dies

i hope u die in hell u heartless beep >.<

Breast cancer is one of the most survivable cancers out there and usually when someone is diagnosed too late, it's generally the woman's fault for not checking her breasts.

No, just no. quick question...have you felt a breast before? Like a real breast...big ol' DD breast? They aren't all that smooth on the inside. There are small lumps, textures, milk ducts...all sorts of things to give it a "feeling"....now...Imagine looking for a pea sized lump in that mass of fat...now imagine that lump is high up in the breast tissue near your arm pit...now imagine that pea lump is a very small, but very aggressive stage 3 breast cancer tumor....best of luck trying to find it. Especially when women are given very little "proper" training to find lumps in breast. They say to look for "unfamiliar lumps" but that is fairly vague wouldn't you say? They have lots of tiny lumps that roll around and smoosh when we touch our breast. If women aren't given intense lesson's on what cancer might feel like...how can we blame them for not finding something if they didn't know what they are looking for?

The products are commercialized and as an avid breast cancer supporter I agree with that...and it pisses me off...HOWEVER.....oh how wrong you are....It isn't just a chest or chemo...hell! it isn't "just chemo"....Chemo is a horrible thing to be on. and women are DYING...dying...without their chest and while on chemo. Dead and gone. All the cookies and umbrellas didn't save them. I won't even get into how significant a woman's breast is to her in this western society. If a man had to cut his p***s off I bet he wouldn't be happy about it.

I was trying to make her see that it means a lot more than that to some women. But I guess until it actually happens some people just don't understand. Yeah the mass is gone but so is the breast, and that can and does take a toll on some. There's a few women at my mothers clinic that she goes to and they've had a very rough time with it.
