Hi Bel, so sorry about your husband’s diagnosis. Such a hard time for you and him. And your precious little ones too. Hope you have family and friends to support you all. The only advice I can give you about finances is to consult a financial planner. I know my friend did that when her husband was dying and they got great advice. I think the salvo’s might have one and also Centrelink  that is free. Send ing  you love and prayers 🙏😘. LindaG ... View more

Hi Karen70, I’m so, so sorry that you have lost your beloved husband in such a short amount of time 😢. I lost a very dear friend a few years ago very quickly. From diagnosis to her death was 10 weeks. I feel such empathy for you, and I’m glad you are surrounded by love from your family. It doesn’t make up for the loss of your husband tho😢. Just sending you love and prayers. 🙏💕. LindaG  ... View more

Hi Glenn, thanks for sharing. You are amazing and courageous.   I’m so glad you have lots of love surrounding you. I remember someone on here who was writing letters to all his loved ones before the end of his life. It gave them something so personal to read after he was gone. I will pray for you 🙏. 💕 LindaG  ...

Hi Jacq, has your dad said how he feels about radiation? Or how he feels about this awful situation? I’m glad he can stay home and you will get help to care for him if necessary. You are such a blessing to your parents and it’s such a privilege to be able to help them. I truly wish this wasn’t happening to you all🙏. I hope you were able to get all the information from the oncologist to decide on the best way for your dad. 🙏💕. Linda. Ps protein powder mixed into milk is easy to swallow and nutritious.  ...

Hello Jacq231, that is such sad news about your dad. I’m so sorry 😢. You are amazing looking after your parents for so many years. It’s awful that your dad has made it to 89 and now has this diagnosis. I don’t know what treatment the doctors will recommend but consider quality of life for your dad depending on what treatment. It is such a hard time of life to see your dad having to go through this.  The cost of loving 💕. I had to let my mum go and it broke my heart 💔. Somehow I have managed to live without her but it’s taken a long time to stop grieving.   Your dad sounds wonderful 💕. I will keep you in my prayers 🙏. LindaG  ... View more

Hi Erica55, I can understand your feelings and it’s just a part of the start of the grieving process. Plus you would be physically and emotionally exhausted. You need to recover and it will take time. When my beautiful mum died it was so difficult. And yes, the funeral is the last thing you do for your mum and then you fall in a heap😢.  It’s now 3 years ago and I’m feeling better but still miss her every day. I hope you have people around you that you can be real with and will support you through this time. Sending you love and prayers 🙏💕. Linda  ... View more

Hi Maher, I’m so sorry about your situation with your precious dad. You really need some medical help to advise you what to do. Is there someone you can contact to assess your dad?  You can’t do this alone and that’s just normal and you are not a failure. Please try and get some help. Love and prayers to you 🙏💕. Linda  ...

Hi Reece87, that’s such sad news about your sister and it’s obvious you love her so much. Just spend as much time as you can with her, tell her how much you love her. It’s just so very hard to know what to say. Be true to your feelings. Say all the words you need to say to your sister. Sending you love and prayers 🙏💕. LindaG  ... View more

Hi, maybe you could check with the cancer council about what questions you need to ask. You can ring them. Also make sure you have someone with you for support and to remember what you don’t.  Hope tomorrow is ok for you 🙏💕 Linda G ... View more
