Thanks for the reply. My brother passed away on the 13th Jan this year. It was so horrible and Im still struggling day to day. A hard thing is having to move on so quickly- work etc. I have 3 kids so life cant stop. You kinda feel guilty for it. I cant imagine what your facing as a mother. I watched my mum care for my bro and see him suffer for a year. Having mum cry on my shoulder for a year was pretty heart renching to. I hope you are ok even though I know your not. Its a fucked up disease that takes the good people for no reason. If you need to msg me do so. You never know.. a chat might make a minute of yours or my day a bit better when your having a bad one.

Hey, what you have posted is exactly how Im feeling now and I know its how my mums feeling to. I just lost my amazing, fit, healthy, cheaky brother to cancer about 2 weeks ago. He was 30 years old, athlete fit, happy, just starting to go places work wise. Im devistated. I saw your post and thought I would write to you. I dont usually do this but Im struggling and if it slightly helps you or me then great. I hope your doing ok! I hope time makes it a little easier but that horrible sadness will always be there I think. I feel like people mean well but say things that make you want to tell them to shut the fuck up! They have no Idea the hurt that you are feeling, as its undescribable. Anyway hope your ok.

Hey Zen. Im not sure what Im doing on here. I never use public forums for talk but I saw your post and felt I wanted to quickly say something. I hope your doing ok. I just lost my younger brother to the exact same thing. Stage 4 colon cancer that spread to his liver. He was only 30. Our situations our different but the sadness I am feeling is a feeling I never knew existed and I know In some way how you may be feeling. If you wanna have a few little conversations it might help us both. If not all good and I hope your ok. Tom.

My younger brother just passed away from stage 4 colon cancer that spread to his liver. He was a bloody amazing bloke, super fit and didn't deserve this. He battled through testicel cancer also, at 19 years old that spread and nearly killed him. Im not one to use public forums but Im struggling and wanted to tell my story quickly to see if anyone else is in the same boat.
Im 32, two years older then by brother. Its not just his death at such a young age thats killing me but also the year of torchure and false hope leading up to the end of his life. The treatment was barbarik!! Chemo, radiation, scans, surgeory, pains everywhere, blood clots, needles, failing kidney it never ended and I feel the medical proffesionals in this area know little to nothing about cancer and only give you these horrible options to try and save yourself. Im angry most days and feel a sadness I cant describe every other minute of every day.
My family and I had to watch my fit, strong, happy, cheaky brother fade away to a shadow and take his last breath. All he cared about was trying to do everything he could for my parents, sisters and I because he knew it was all over for him. That broke my heart having to watch and would have given anything to be able to help him.
I love him so much. I have regrets also about time spent together as adults. I cant believe this has happened.

Hey, Im not one to post things online or talk to strangers about things but I thought I would try this forum for some reason.
My younger bro of two years has terminal stage 4 colon cancer that has spread to his liver. He's been through all the shit stuff like alot have, eg chemo, radiation beads in his liver, surgery but to no final success.
He is 30 years old. He's not coping to well with it all, I cant blame him though. He battled through testical cancer also at 19 years old. Its been a massive rollacoaster ride for myself, parents and sisters but still not over. I try and stay strong for him but have my moments of weakness, breaking down sometimes.
Just throwing this out there incase anyone is in a simmilar situation.
Thanks
