My mother is very sick with cancer. I have to say that this is the most horrible disease that anyone could be afflicted with. She is in such severe pain that it makes her cry. She has been going through treatment for almost 2 years now. She is currently hospitalized and will probably be there quite a while. She is a strong woman and fighting, but is suffering so much. Sometimes you wonder how much more she can take. She is currently receiving both chemotherapy and radiation treatments. She's tired all of the time, but when I speak to her on the phone she is almost always upbeat and positive.
After taking care of my father in-law, who had terminal cancer, it makes me wonder if death would be better than all the pain that she is suffering. I saw my father in-law go from an active man to a shell of man because of his disease and unfortunately am seeing the same thing with my mother. I wish there was more research and that the doctors could find a cure for cancer. You would think with all the technology that the world now had that this could be achieved.
To everyone that is either suffering with this disease or knows someone who is, my thoughts are with you. Here's hoping that some day we will be able to find a cure for all different types of cancer and that everyone that has died from this terrible disease did not die in vain.
