My Cousin's Going To Die.

Well, for all of you whom I've kept updated on the cancer situation with my 17 year old cousin, Justin, with Rhabdomyosarcoma in Stage 5, there's nothing more they can do unfortunately. He's went through chemo for over a year and it's obviously not doing anything. The cancer started in his upper arm and has he had that amputated, but it's now spread throughout his body and my mother says he's going downhill quick, according to my Granny who Carolyn (Justin's Mom) informs first, and then Granny spreads the word to the rest of the family. But anywho, Carolyn and the family have chosen not to tell Justin that he's going to die, and have kept it a secret for quite a while. Im quesitoning if they should've done that, but if they had told him in the beginning when they heard the doubtful words from the doctor, and immediately told him...he might of just given up. But it was just a month or two ago that I saw him in person and he was doing fine, except he was feeling quite bad because of the cancer, but taking it strongly and trying to show no signs. But I just dont understand why cancer has to be such a *****, not just to my cousin Justin (who hasnt even begun to start his life, and wont ever, because of this stupid disease.), but to everyone else who's went through it. 😬
...And mother says he probably wont even make it until Christmas to say the worst...

I see, yeah, it seems cancer is taking over the best of us these days...younger and younger in age.
But thanks for everyone's support.

Maybe not the time to inject my own personal losses, but in the last 20 years I lost 8 relatives, beginning with my grandmother in Feb. of 2001, and the subsequent deaths of two of her brothers (my uncles Joe and Floyd) and one of her sisters (my aunt Katherine from open heart surgery complications) and her husband in a car accident. Later uncle Joe's wife, my aunt Jeanne, died from an epileptic seizure and lastly, the youngest, my cousin Nancy, (42) died last year from returning breast cancer. Her daughter, Melinda, died from leukemia at age 4 back in 1987.

Most of them were cancer, in fact it's hereditary on that side of the family.

Anyway, there's not much I or anyone here can do or say, but regardless of who we are here at KM, or our differing views, I want to extend a warm hug and offer you my sincerest condolences. 🙁
