My "other" mother has bone cancer..has been fighting it for 16 years. She is not doing well. I find myself constantly praying to god to spare her..give us a miracle and let her get better. I am so scared!! I have been having major anxiety attacks and cant sleep. I have been seeing a therapist..helps a little. I cant imagine my life without her. I have a very small family..her..my mom and sister.

My husband walks away from me when I get upset or have a down moment. He offers no support. I feel so lost with all of this. I got on this website I guess hoping to seek support from others....

    Cancer has such a great
    Cancer has such a great effect on those who have it and those that care about them. It is hard to watch those loved ones' health deteriorate. Come here often if you need to vent or need support. There are many wise people here who understand your feelings. My only suggestion is that you pray for peace. Since you mentioned praying, I am assuming that you will not mind the prayers from others. So I will say a prayer for you and your special friend. I will pray for peace and healing for you both. Please keep in mind that healing doesn't necessarily mean a cure. I'm glad you are getting help from a therapist. Take care of yourself and just be there for your other mother. Fay
