Hi @Tiff123 , I'm so sorry, and I understand completely. Last year I had breast cancer and this year I have another cancer, bladder cancer, I have a sister but I noticed she has distanced herself from me, she will answer texts but just briefly saying something like " you can do this, just listen to your body" .... that's it. I know how you feel, would be nice to have a little more wouldn't it. I think they are scared, can't face it, I really do think it's just that. I'm lucky I have a husband who "tries" to be my brick, he's not that great at it but I realise he does his best to support me and a cousin who is a sweet heart. I don't know if anyone really knows how to approach our cancers to give support except for others going through the same thing, that's why these forums are so great I find. Your relatives still love you they just don't know how to approach the big C subject. A gentle cuddle is sometimes worth SO MUCH isn't it. Sending you a big virtual cuddle Cindi xx💖 ... View more
