Hello new here don't know what to do

I think I might have cancer but to scared to go to the doctor as I lost my mum and little sister to cancer and my dad a few months ago to brain cancer. Seeing what they went though I can't do that.

When you say you might have cancer how can you be sure till you see a doctor? With your family history you should be making an appointment today, cancer doesn't get better all by itself, do you think your parents would want you to just ignore it? Take care!
