I've just been dealt another blow. My Dad has cancer again!!!
A bit of history;
3 years ago, Mum got very aggressive breast cancer, she was 47 at the time, she had a full masectomy and intensive chemo. She beat it and is now doing pretty well.
A short time later my Gran got cancer and died. Then my Nanna, who I was very close to also got cancer and died. Then my uncle (Mum's little brother) also died of cancer. Bad luck hey!!! Oh, then it was my grandpa who died of cancer also.
Last year my Dad was diagnosed with lymphoma, he responded well to radiotherapy and they were fairly confident that they got it all. A PET scan earlier this year was clear..........HOORAY!!
On Friday Dad had a further PET scan, just a routine follow up. THe cancer is back but in a different spot. Dad is 52.
Sometimes I feel that there is something out there just trying to tear me up inside, it's certainly working.!!!!
Dad is confident that he'll be ok, but I can't help but think the worst. Why is it always my family, who are the most loving, beautiful people you could meet, that are the one's getting hurt and sick???????????????
