Good Evening...

Just reading everyone's stories about there situation. I have been asking why since my sister got this terrible illness. Like I said once before, this is the worst thing that I ever had to see someone go through...and it happens to be my sister. My sister! Ok, cancer...but, Head and neck cancer! It SUCKS! What she and others are going through. Why must they be tortured this way. Why the no talking, the no eating. The goo coming out from everywhere on her neck. Her mouth, she drools. I can't even believe my own eyes! Some days is more difficult then others. You feel selfish that you are able to talk and eat and try do be somewhat normal, but the guilt and the worrying that you feel for my sister is bigger then life itself. It is exhausting...how is she doing this?...she has two children that need her so much to be a part of their life, but instead she is in the bathroom cleaning her wound on her neck! Will it ever heal? That's what I want to know. She is swollen one day and the next a little better, then back again, will that ever go away? Will the tumor ever go away and stay away? will she talk again? I miss her voice, her singing, us laughing together... will she be able to enjoy something to eat ever again? No answers... Who knew this was coming, who knew. What a cross to carry. We will always remain close and positive no matter what. We continue to hope that tomorrow will be a better day for Linda and for all...God Bless...Life and Hope go hand and hand...We have to believe...we have to...that is all we have...Take Care XoX Flo frown
