Boy who would have thought that one family could get so much bad news is one day!

The first phone call was about my aunt, I was told she has incurable breast cancer which has spread.

The second call was to say my uncle has had a heart attack.

The third was that my cousin has M. S.

Then to finish us off for the day we had a call to say my husband, Philip's sister had just died. She had breast cancer too! Philip also has another sister who has breast cancer that has spread and there is nothing more that can be done.

How much more can we take. This was the worst day for phone calls.

We now have to arrange a funeral and try and sort things out for everyone. I can't see us having much time to visit my aunt or uncle this week so I'm feeling bad. They are a long drive from here as is my cousin with M.S.
How can life be so cruel to drop all this at one time. It's all too much...Hugs please!

Hugs Jane.  bear_cry

Good grief!  They say "That which doesn't kill us, makes us stronger."  If that's true, Jane, then you will be WONDER WOMAN by now.

I'm so terribly sorry for all your painful news today. 

You have my hugs and even more, my empathy and support.

Take good care, my friend.
