Lifes to short

[vstrom]

Today I got a phone call at work from wife balling her eyes out she then tells me her brother has cancer I nearly fell over he's like a brother to me I went through this when my father died .He's 's fit active well off but has always stressed to much I have joked about it to him saying stress will kill you my point here is we need to look at what we have and sometimes say that's enough for the only real treasure is family love and friendship and none of those cost anything so stop stressing and enjoy life for what it is a very short gift so smile enjoy love and live.

Can't disagree with that, vstrom.

Vstrom
Sorry for the bad news in your family. It's devastating news.
Life 'is' to short ..... as Jack Dawson (DiCaprio) said in Titanic "To make each day count".

So sorry to hear that ...
life is short ... live the moment...if ain`t cancer ...it`s a stroke....if aint stroke it`s a heart attack....if aint heart attack it`s a bloody idiot that smashed into you .....not to forget stress...and etc .....
life it`s a disease...spread from generation to generation.....there`s no cure for it to become immortal and stop this disease .....might as well enjoy every single second, blink of our life....never know when we`re next ....

Sorry to hear about your brother-in-law, hope he remains positive. What cancer does he have?
Yes, there is only one more devastating diagnosis about cancer, that is when your doctor sits you down and tells you, you have it.
Fight and sometimes you can win.

Sorry mate. Chin up. :|

 

[Ramjet]

Sorry to hear of your Brother in law's illness. You are so right about not stressing the small things and enjoying the things that matter.

Thats the spirit Vstrom,
we're all just humans; breif and fleeting in existence but its better for ourselves and those around us if we look toward the light instead of dwelling on the dark.

Its hard in the worst situations to do that and not really expected as im sure the rest of your family share your sadness and worry. In the end though you, your family and friends will come through and wake to another morning full of positives.

As you said dont sweat the small stuff, whenever someone says that to me or I hear it said I immediately think of monty python and sing "always look on the bright side of life" in my head.

Always brings a smile out and makes it easier to carry on.

Sorry to hear that. Depending on the type of cancer though it is not a life sentence. I have been down the cancer/chemo route and have been in remission (they never say cancer free) for 10 years or so now. Now all I have to worry about is old age - stuffed joints and a cranky mood.

 

[mardymoose]

Keep your chin up and pass on best wishes, keep up the fight

 

[vstrom]

Thanks for support and we'll wishes everyone he has liver cancer and this fight is just beginning we will give all the support he needs to hopefully beat this curse on humanity . Live life to the fullest because you never know.

Bring the family together, cry, talk, and do your best. Remembering, and sharing eachothers best experiences with him helps.
