Sept's BIL needs your T&P
Ladies, in case you didn't know, Sept's BIL has been battling cancer for a while now. To see him you would never know it because both he and Sept's sister don't let it get them down. They live each day to the fullest. Sept just sent a text saying that something has happened to him and he is in the ER, and they all need lots of T&P from everyone.
Thanks ladies!
Re: Sept's BIL needs your T&P
Sept. and family are in my thoughts.
Hey guys! Thanks so much. I don't really have much information, well ok I do because I learned more tonight.
He was having seizures but they are not sure what is causing them. They found a bruise on his brain from the tumor but it is not causing the problem. So far medically they can't find a reason other than he has a brain tumor.
I did not know that his 3rd brain tumor is located on the top of his head which is why it's completely inoperable, which I did know. The tumor has grown "fingers" which means that it's essentially digging and grabbing onto many parts of his brain and is very very bad. I do not think he will live past 2010 unless God sends a miracle.
I feel so safe in my house but I hear the wind and it's so foreboding to me. I feel like the wind is trying to knock down my house and grab me. I just can't shake this really horrible feeling that I have had for a few days. I hate feeling safe in my house when my sister is alone in her house, waiting to find out more tomorrow. I hate how there is nothing I can do and tragedy continues to bring my family down each and every single year. I know there are lessons in all of this but honestly....sometimes it's just too much. Off the top of my head since 2001 there has been 19 severe tragedies (several to the same people) in my life, I'm talking extreme stuff, not always ending in death but mostly.
I hate too how i need to get this out at 130am and it's all so freaking negative and IRL...i'm a damn positive person but on here....i just let it all go and I bet most everyone thinks I must be the most unhappy, negative person in the world or completely exaggerating my situations to get attention, which I'm not....guess I need to get that therapist to find an outlet where I won't worry about what other people think of me when I need to vent. I do get it...most of it seems way to unreal to be true but I do know there are a few of you on here that had tragedy come one after the other after other.
I'm really too scared to go to bed. I don't want the phone to wake me up to a call with horrible news. And I have to stop typing because I'm working myself up.
This is the best place to vent and let it all out! We are here for you! (((hugs)))
I am so sorry for this news, T&P are with your BIL as well as you and your whole family.
Sept - please don't feel that we are looking at you as Nancy negative. This board is all about venting and letting go of those bad emotions. You are certainly not the only one that does it.
I can't say that I know what you are going through because I don' but I have been through some very rough times. Feel free to vent to me whenever you want. Please share any good news as well.
I hope you got my text last night. Remember, we are here if you need us!
Thoughts and prayers to you and your family ((hugs))
