A few years back, my cousin was diagnosed with brain cancer. It’s in a liquid part of the brain so there’s no way it’ll completely go away. He went through a surgery and has lived a few years without problems. Now he’s starting chemo again though… No one in the family is dealing healthily except my uncle. Some pity him, some throw it under the rug. Nobody’s told him he has cancer. He’s in trade school now and he has made friends. He’s quite handsome though he has a white rash on his face. It seems it’s possible his best days are behind him. He might never finish college. How can I help him as a member of the family?
How it affects my life personally I think comes down to love, like my friend said. Love for my family, my bff, my future family, new friends I’m making, support groups and maybe religion and knowledge. I have faith in the future and I have trust.

I’m sorry friend.
My aunt just died last week of lung cancer that ended up spreading to the brain. With this being said I know what your going through and how I feel. All I can say is be there for your cousin when he needs you. Just by hanging out or being there for his chemo treatments. Don’t put to much pressure on him or yourself. Help him feel comfortable as well as yourself!

Sorry for your loss. We used to be close, but I don’t live in China and don’t see him enough to be part of his treatment. I just hope the chemo works and he has a few more years because things were starting to go so well for him…
