things are so bad

[atroop711]

I don''t know what to do. I just found out my uncle (my dad''s bro) who is my favorite and the nicest person is going to die. He was diagnosed a few months ago with cancer of the spleen. WIth the Chemo, his Hepatitis B came back and attacked his liver (from what I understand). He is in liver failure and the Drs said he isn''t going to make it. I''m in shock.

His daughter (my cousin) just gave birth 1 month early. My uncle who has been excited about these babies went into the ICU the day after he met his grandchildren. It was like the babies came early so he could meet them before he got so sick.

My dad who''s so close with his brother has lost both parents in the last 1.5yrs. I don''t think he can handle another loss. I''m so worried he''ll have a breakdown...I don''t know what to do. I''m here in tears for both my uncle and my father. My uncle is only 60 yr old...he''s so young and had so many plans. It''s shocking how just 5 months ago he was fine.

I guess I had to vent since I''m here alone with my 8mo old. Please keep my uncle Raymond in your prayers

I am so, so sorry to hear this bad news about your beloved Uncle. I can only say, make sure you give yourself time to visit with him before it''s too late. These are very sad things. I am awfully sorry.

awww ATRoop I am so sorry you are having to go through this, I kinda know how you must feel, I went through something similar about nine years ago I had two deaths in my family, two coworkers death due to cancer and another due to murder, and a really bid deal breakup, huge family problem, disowned by my parents (we''re all good now) all within six weeks. There was a reason I went through it all, but I sure hope things turn out better soon. Prayers and thoughts going to you sweets

[atroop711]

Thanks everyone for your kind words and prayers. Unfortunately I cannot go and be with him but I had my dad put the phone to his ear and I told him how much I love him. I had to make it quick because I broke down and I didn''t want him to hear me...I''m usually the strong one but this was not expected and happened so fast.

Thank you all for being there for me
