Everything bads happening at once!


Question Posted Wednesday May 11 2005, 11:56 am

I'm 14, and a girl. We just found out that my grandpa had cancer about a month and a half ago. We knew something was wrong but we weren't sure what. It was too bad when we found out so the medicine didn't do anyghing. Hes slowly getting worse and can die any day now. My whole family is devestated and sometimes i just can't take the feeling i get inside. =( My boyfriends grandma had an anurism and then 3 strokes, and now she's dying too, and it's going to happen the same way (go into a comma and stop breathing) and around the same time. We live in jersey but his grandmas in florida so he just went down there. I don't have him with me when i need him most and im just really upset. My cousin on my other side of the family doesn't care about anything that's happening to me, and he's hated me for the past 9 monthes because im going out with his friend! He won't even talk to me now, and he even has my step-sister on his side. I'm just really upset and i don't know what to do. Sometimes i just break down and cry which sort of helps, but is there anything else? Please help me, Im soo upset! Thank you

That really sucks, try to talk this out with your sister, tell your cousin to grow up (he's way wrong to hate you over your BF), keep up hope though, if everything's happening now, what could possibly happen later?

First I am so sorry that this is happening to you.
Try to just be near your grandfather as much as you can. Talk to him and tell him that you love him. Even if he doesn't remember you it will help you to just talk to him and it will be good for him too. Is there anyway that you can call your boyfriend so that you can at least talk to each other and get your feelings out that way? That will probably help you get through this too. This is going to be hard for you and your family and the best way to get through it is to talk about how you're feeling and cry. If your cousin wants to be an ass then don't have anything to do with him for right now. Try not to even think about him. You have enough things to worry about right now and you don't need to be worrying your childish cousin. Again I'm soo sorry that this is happening and it will be tough and I know how hard it is to lose someone you love but you CAN get through it.

Good luck and I hope things get better for you.

All you can do is spend as much time as possible with your grandfather while he's still here. I lost my grnadpa to cancer several years ago, and while the sympathy and understanding of others helped, nothing was as good as the time I spent with him. They say everyone dies alone, but they also grieve alone too. Your cousin is hurting, and being jelous of loosing some of his friend's attention to you has made him petty. Ignore him as best you can. He seems to be lashing out in pain more than not caring how you feel. Some people just feel better if they can make someone feel worse than they do. I wish I could give you more support. Big hug!
