Have recently had a recurrance in this house, not of cancer, but of a certain stepdaughters' bad behaviour. When Rod was diagnosed in March 2009, and began treatment in June 2009, before we got married in December 2009, I was a very angry little short person, due to none of Rod's family offering any help in any way whatsoever. Now he has NED, and his eldest who is 30 next month has started on me again. One of the things she said was that I was killing Rod by overdosing him on drugs. I'm like what??? She said she was going to take me to court for power of attorney over him!! [jaw dropped here!!'] I thank everyone who HAS helped in any way including being here on this site for me, without the help & love I did get, I wouldn't be able to laugh off this silly girls issues. Seriously though, why are prople such dickheads?? They are so ignorant that they think Rod should be jumping for joy, healthy in every way, back at work etc, apart from laugh, I want to smash their heads against a brick wall!!....Wish they would move to another state!! I still need to be a carer, only now the job isn't so tough. He still needs help with showering/bathing, meds, food etc. Stupid girl!! GRRRRR!!!! lol
