ovarian cancer stole my heart
first time posting, i dont know exactly what to say... but..

my mother had cancer, for four years. it took her life. ovarian caner to be exact. she fought a long battle.. today is her birthday. she died in april 2003. im still trying to make myself believe shes really, never coming back..

no one really writes in this community much. as to why, i do not know. if anyone else wants to IM me up and talk about this.. you can. aim: xaswekissxox or xmelissaface ...out.

I'm so sorry to hear that - I lost my dad 4 months ago to esophagul/stomach cancer. I completely know what you're going through. I also lost a kidney and part of my liver to kidney cancer 2 years ago, so I know the struggle firsthand. I'm the maintainer of this community, and you're right, I don't know why people don't post more often. I advertise it all the time. It's frustrating because we all want to meet more people that understand the grief that we feel, share stories and give support. Anyway, thanks for joining. Feel free to email me anytime, I'd love to hear from you: stockchick26@alltel.net (Reply to this) (Thread)

four months ago. i bet its still hard for you to breathe knowing a big part of your life is gone.. forever. i know it still is for me,. each day i have to stop and remind myself, melissa. you can do it. you'll make it. when it had been 4 months since my mom's death i was so focused on when will things get better, and how much time does this take to heal. everyone says time makes things easier. they all lie. im still in pain. i still cry every day. i still feel empty. each day is harder for me. and each holiday is HORRID. but we'll make it if we all just stick together.. im me please? exoh, melly. ps. im going to add you, cause i think your swell.
