Brian... I'm so sorry to hear that...I lost my grandparents to diff. cancers and someone very close to me lost his daughter at 13 to Cancer 10 years ago. The best you can do at this point is to be honest with those closest to you and let them help you deal with it. It can be conquered........Please let them help you with it and let them be there for you....that is soo important!!!!!!! You need the support of your family and friends....
I keep thinking one day this is gonna spring on me too......I cant understand why some are chosen so young to have to deal w/ this.....its not fair. My prayers and my well wishes are there for you and your family..... hang in there and KNOW that you will KICK IT IN THE ***!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Those that say they are not religious, that is their choice. I feel we ALL have a higher POWER to answer to one day! I was raised in a very religious family, although, I might not always carry that out, I will pray for you and for you to be healed.
Best of luck to your and to your family...
