reading your message...well...I am so sorry to hear this...I KNOW what you are going through...too well

My Mom got diagnosed with bone marrow cancer last year. three weeks ago my father got diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. It has also spread to his liver and throat..and he has lost about 10 lbs in a month. He is still smoking....

I also have only one brother...who actually was missing for the past 11 years until he showed back up literally one month ago, a week before my dad found out about the cancer. (THIS is the only thing that makes me beilive in anything right now). My brother is living with them, I live about an hour away...My brother also is heavily drinking. Im very worried about him.

I am very scared about the year to come...My mom is somewhat healthy right now...but if she has to see her husband die...Im so scared she will go after. ...I feel so alone, being  only 28 with both parents having cancer. I dont really know my brother anymore...so that is hard as well because IM scared he will leave again. Its so hard,...I feel like I am still in shock..Im mad...and I cant keep worrying about everyone.

I also just got my dream job.....Its a once in a lifetime opportunity...that I cannot give up...but I do not get to go home alot...I dont know what to do.
