My dad was diagnosed with cancer a few days ago. He starts chemo and radiation therapy next week. I have a lot on my mind. He has given me and my brothers everything. He has worked extremely hard to give us a comfortable childhood and adolescence. Through his own dedication to his family he has set us up to live successful and comfortable lives of our own. I don’t know how best to support him and my mom through this. I don’t know anything. I keep having random bouts of profound sadness leaving me in tears. Just the thought of him suffering like he will have to to make it through this makes me feel sick.
