i dont know if you can call me a caregiver because for most of my life i've been bothering my mom and being a fussy daughter but as someone who's loved one suffers from cancer, i'd say the hardest part is not being able to make it better. no matter what i do i can't cure my mother's cancer. i can work really hard in school, i can go with her to appointments and carry all her stuff but i cant do what i want the most, to get my healthy, beautiful mom back.
darkest moments: probably being in the doctors office, hearing cold harsh words. and the thoughts that race through your head when someone you love is in surgery.
i dont know why but i've always felt like we'd make it through and we always have. i always think short term, like what can i do to help her right now? a pillow, tylenol and day by day it gets better. and chocolate that always helps me.
