The person I love was diagnosed with cancer. I can't stop crying. I hope things will be okay.
I want us to grow old together. I want us to live life.
I hurting my friend got cancer can you pray for him
Just learned one of my best friends have cancer i had to look at this video
Thank you for making this video. My father was recently diagnosed and I just want to know how to help him through it all. I am staying positive for him to overcome it and I am definitely stepping in. I pray everyone get through this disease with as much ease as possible💙
My grandpa told me today he was diagonsed with cancer. I love him so much and this fucked me over. Im going spend more time with him
My mom has cancer and she’s always talking about wanting to die. It hurts 😢
I'm 34 M. From Canada. I have colon cancer. I am unvaccinated so they refuse surgery. And since the covid ended here basically 4 months ago they refuse to continue my pain management medications. Or my motility medications which make your intestines move feces. I k ow how she feels. My wife and I argue daily about the time that's given with my children from her and the help I need. I'm exhausted daily and it's just getting worse. Please be patient with her. You may not u derstamd the pain exhaustion and isolation cancer patients feel. It is 1000% different than any ailment I have had or seen. Including almost loosing my daughter to ecoli. This is ongoing to no avail. Pray for you and yours.

Is it normal to not feel any emotion after finding out that your friend has cancer but than again I do just have late reactions and I’ll probably realise what’s happening a bit more later
It's a completely normal reaction, it's a way of expressing shock. it's a huge flush of emotions just coming out that you don't know how to react at all so you default to just staying normal. The best thing to do is to support them to your best abilities
Yes
I hope you're better now
I was the sole carer for my mother when she got cancer, one of the biggest eye openers for me was those you expect to be there for you werent and those you LEAST expect to be there and help out whether emotionally or physically were there, my mother has passed now, it was a very intense year or so and am glad shes now at peace no more suffering
Good advice! Thanks for making this video
♥️♥️♥️
Having no support with uterus cancer from sisters or children maybe they don't realize it's not just a cancer / hysterectomy at age 70 or it's because it's not them but I'm in this pony show by myself 100%
I’m so sorry! This is truly awful. My best friend of 40 years is no longer a friend, and my son is no longer in my life. Going through cancer you see who your true family members and friends are. I’m fortunate that my family (minus my son) is here for me.
thank you so much for sharing this - we recently started sharing our story on our channel with hopes of connecting and helping one another heal after hearing this diagnosis!! we are in this together!
Hoping someone can help us ,my boyfriend have non hodgkins lymphoma ,where done in chemo but cannot proceed to radiation because of financial problems ,hope its not too late
Now i choose to live him alone so i can work and save for his radiation
Please help us
