How s**t can life be

[looby]

Hi all,

could do with some support and any advice today.

I found out lastnight my best friend (the one with cancer) has been told she's only got 2 - 3 months left.
I really don't know how to handle it. I am absolutely devastated. For some stupid naive reason I thought she was getting better! How f'ing thick am I!!!!!!!!!!

I spoke to her briefly after I found out and didn't have a clue what to say, she sounded fine.
Me and my other 2 friends are going to see her next weekend, she is staying with her mum down south.

I just don't know how to handle it. I was sobbing last night and today I am just numb.

I've had a huge fight with my dad on the phone about it and hung up on him, I even said good bye to him before I hung up, not very affective hey!!!!My dad was really insensitive about it and called it a "little thing" that my mates dying. I just lost it with him.

and if 1 more family memeber tells me that my mum and dad are just worried that I may slip back into the depression, I think I may end up in prison!!!!!!!!! All I wanted was their support, but all he could think about was me taking a day off work.

Thanks for reading my rant, and any spare hugs going about I wouldn't mind one being chucked in my direction .

Thanks,
L

So sorry to hear about your friend and think i can understand a bit how you feel. In August my boss was diagnosed with cancer and she died in December. It was very progressive and left us all with mixed feelings of emotions which we all found difficult to cope with. A lot of people didnt understand but people all mean different things to different people and it doesnt really matter what your link is with that person it affects you. Her funeral was on my birthday and was a really emotional and difficult time. I think what other people have said is true you have to go with what you feel. It is quite normal to have the feelings you are experiencing and it is a journey which you will both travel. Be assured that you are not alone. Take care SS

thank you all so very very much.

I had just stopped crying and now you've all started me off again with you being so nice and supportive.
She is hopefully coming home at the weekend so I can spend quite a bit of time with her. thankfully.

Again, thank you all so very very much.
