Hi im new to these boards and was looking for some advice. A close family member was diagnosed with GBM 4 and we were told it was inoperable but they would offer Radiotherapy, the treatment is now over and no further treatment is being offered, We as a family accepted from the start that we were going to lose her and i thought i was handling it all very well with the occassion down day form time to time which i realise is perfectly normal. My problem is that i seem to get very angry and irate at the slightest issue and sometimes feel that my spouse and children just dont understand what i am going through and will never understand the sense of loss i feel. Is it perfectly usual for family that r losing someone to be as moody and aggressive as i am? I seem to find fault in everythign that everyone does, to the kids being particularly loud to feeling that my spouse doesnt understand so i get angry about that, i even get het up and irate when queuing in a shop and the assistant is taking too long to serve. Am i just being over sensitive?
Any advice on how to curb my temper will be much appreciated. I feel so angry and hurt that something like this has happened to our family, why us? why not someone else..... I so hope that i am not alone in feeling this way
I can understand your feelings. You want to do something but you feel at a loss.My brother in law is in the hospital with angiosarcoma. I can't seem to find anyone who has experienced this type of cancer. Research looks bleak and other resources aren't very encouraging..My sister is a basket case and even as sick as my brother in law is he suggeasted she see her doctor to get some help. Also, is ther someone you can talk to?
