Enjoy being with her until shes finished with the kemotherapy (SP?) Don't make her feel scared and confort her. Take things serioucly on the treatments and just make sure that you enjoy her while you still can. Good Luck with your sis! Hope she comes through ok!

Hi Sweetie,
Wow, that is terrible. I am very sorry anyone would have to go through that. Well there are things you can do. First of all, have faith. Try to be positive... not just for yourself but for her and your whole family. Someone needs to be positive and have faith. She will live. If you believe it and want it enough... it will happen. The other thing you can do is be there for her and with her. Spend time with her... listen to her. And I mean actually listen. Think of everything she says... observe how she reacts to things... and talk to her as her little sister... ask her for advice, tell her about the boy you like, ask her about what she went thought when she had your age... Be grateful to have her with you. Not just her but everyone in your family as well. ...You're going to be scared maybe even angry, but its okay. It's how you're supposed to feel. Just love her and have faith.
My best wishes to you, your sister, and your enitre family. ~Blessed Be...

My older brother got testicular cancer. He had a testicle removed. Next it spread to his braing, lungs, kidneys, and colon. He then hit CHEMOTHERAPY (btw). He didn't even make it a year. I always had thoughts of him dying. There was no way to avoid it. I never even heard a prognosis. It's a gut feeling and it's probably right. It's hard to go through, but death is part of life, and this will only make you stronger.

Don't think of the worst, you HAVE to stay positive. Just let her know she can get through this and she'll be fine. If something goes wrong, do everything you can in that year to be with her. But if it was spotted early there's a very good chance she'll be cured, you just have to have faith.

Its o.k. to feel scared. its the only natural thing. But remember one thing you're not alone, your parents are going through the same thing. Your sister is most likely ten times more afraid. You need to just hope for the best and pray to God that everything will be alright.I really hope everything works out for your family.

Just think about the positives, how much fun things you did/do together, and all the memories that you shared. Exspeacially how much she loves you as a sister! She will always be in your heart! And she might live longer then a year.

If you want to talk to someone who lost her mother to cancer leave one in my inbox. THis person who lost her mother is my cousin who is coming for a visit this weekend. She could help. Good luck and may God bless your family in this rough time!

Oh My gosh! I cant really give you advice to make her live but my heart is with you. My moms worker Gina has breast cancer and is getting surgery. Not only is Gina my mom's worker but my bestfriend and hero so i dont know just thinking of losing gina makes me want to cry. So good luck. Just pray for her its the only thing you can do. Good luck to you and your sister.

P.S: Pray for her everynight.

First of all, the fact she is having surgery is good as it means the tumour won't have spread. They will be able to remove most or all of the tumour and the chemotherapy will kill all the cells which are likely to turn into tumours. It's lucky the doctors have found out in time and at such a young age she has a very good chance of making a full recovery.

I'm very sorry about this horrible thing happening in your life right now. There really is nothing you can do but cherish the time you have with her now. Don't think about the tumor or treat her different, either. Make sure you talk to her as if she's the same sister you have had for 14 years. That's what she wants. She doesn't want any sympathy. At least I wouldn't. Anyways, I hope your sister recovers and in the mean time feel free to e-mail me,

ok..this is scary..take a deep breath...
Now..cancer does NOT always kill..do NOT event hink that.
you have to be strong for YOUR sister. She and your paresnts ned you. Having these doom and gloom thoughts does no one any good..especially her.
Read up on the tumor...go to WEBMD and find out what you can.
be there...for everyone..make sure that YOu are living your life as weel as you can..your paresnt will be focused on her..so you have to be the bst you can.
But..KEEP THOSE death thoughts to yourself..do NOT give up on your sister...ok
Be strong..ma thinking and praying for your family!
