over the years the children have had their fair share of having to deal with a mental illness. My oldest is in her last year of her physics degree and my youngest last year of high school. At times it can be pretty tense.
I just want to be as prepared as best as I can be. I can deal with mental illness but I don't know anything about cancer apart from what I've read and to be honest it sounds scary. I am worried having to deal with both at the same time.
Thanks again
