3 AnswersChristmas7 years agoIs my mum in the wrong here?
My grandad has been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer that has spread and he will not survive this. I am devastated... It still hasn't sunk in yet. All I want is to get some
Sleep because I can't take my mind off it and I want to get some sleep so i can get up early to visit my grandad. My mum has decided at 3AM she is going to her friends and has left my sister and me in the house with the door unlocked. We can't lock the door because my mum needs to be back in at some point so basically we have to wait up for her at nearly 4am. She has never once comforted us about my grandad dying, I am so frustrated with her.
2 AnswersWords & Wordplay8 years agoI am finding it so hard to accept the face that my grandad is dying?
Just yesterday he had been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. He was bad for months and they couldn't point out what it was an when they've found out there's nothing that can be done about it. The cancers spread too far to be able to treat. I saw him today and I was in shock.. He is in so much pain. He can't talk properly, hasn't ate, can't move and is having trouble breathing. I'm finding it so hard watching him i pain not being able to help. He is all wired up, he is also staring in to air. I've never seen him this bad before and it was so hard to not cry infront of him.. I stayed strong and didn't cry infront of him because I didn't want to make it worse. We don't know how long he has left, but it doesn't look good.. Yellow face and very weak. By the way that the doctors are acting it seems as if they think he doesn't have long because they are telling him he can have anything he wants to relieve pain, and they're also taking the hospital bed to my grandparents home where he can pass away there. This has come as such a shock, I only found out yesterday and it's in such late stages of cancer he may only have days left. In seventeen and I don't know how to cope, it hasn't even sunk in yet.
4 AnswersPsychology8 years agoI'm finding it hard to accept that my grandad is dying from cancer?
Just yesterday we were told he has advanced lung cancer and it's past the stages we can do anything. He started getting back pain and body pain around a month ago. He said to
Me it felt as if somebody was crushing his ribs. When he went to the doctors they told him it was Plurcy and they were telling him he was going to go for a scan but they kept on delaying this skan. Now that they've finally done this scan they've discovered advanced lung cancer. My mum has told me he is dying, there is nothing we can do and radio therapy isn't really an option anymore it's to late for chemo. He is also in bad pain and my mum says its usually the last days of cancer that you are in pain. I am finding this hard to accept as I was not expecting this at all.. He is 63 and very fit for his age. He was always shopping, gardening, decorating his house and he was just fine and now we've been hit with this news. I feel like somebody has punched me in the face one thousand times. I am feeling unbelievably guilty because I can't even begin to imagine how my grandad is feeling, knowing he is dying. I just wasn't expecting this and I am scared because I don't know how long he has left.. I'm really finding it hard to accept and it hasn't sunk in yet :(

4 AnswersGenealogy8 years agoMy grandad has been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer?
I've just found out that my grandad, age 63, has been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. This is such a shock as I wasn't expecting this. He started to get ill aroud a month and a half ago, he was complaining of pains in his ribs. He then went to the doctors to be told he had Plurcy. He has been getting worse and worse this month and they've constantly been going to doctors but they kept delaying his scan. Now it's too late to do anything. He is in really bad pain and the pain is all get his body.
I would like to know more about advanced lung cancer? Did you know anybody who had it? From what I described how long does he have left? Is he in the late stages?
I'm so confused, my nana won't tell me much. How do I handle it? When I see my grandad do I cry? Or do I hold it in? I want to stay strong for him, I don't want to make him feel worse by crying.
I am having terrible guilt now.. Because I can not imagine what my poor grandad is thinking :( I really didn't expect this at all.. I feel like I've been smacked in the face with it.
3 AnswersCancer8 years agoI am tired of my parents asking me for money.. I am just a child?
I'm only seventeen years old, I save my money up and I make my money from selling my handmade things. I don't have a problem with helping my mother out but it's became a frequent thing. She is always asking me if she can borrow my money! It annoys me because she will not leave me alone until I do. Everytime she asks me I say yes, I feel like I'm being taken advantage of. Yesterday she was non stop asking me if she could borrow my money to go out clubbing.. I said no because she is struggling with money as it is so she can't afford to go out and she hadalready went out the night before. So I was about to leave the house and I went to give her a kiss goodbye am she walked away because I wouldn't give her the money. She then texted me trying to guilt trip me saying 'it looks like I am staying in the house all alone tonight' she did this whilst I am at my boyfriends house trying to watch a film and eat food and relax. She didn't stop texting me until I finally gave in.. So when I gave in she texted me saying 'you will have to borrow my friend some money too because she has no money' so I agree to borrow my mother it and then she expects to fund her friend money too!? What a joke! They wouldn't stop hasteling me until I said yes, so they arrived at my boyfriends house at 1am for money, they hastelled me all night and ruined mine and my boyfriends night. I am only 17.. Why should I fund my mothers clubbing money? She calls me spiteful and greedy and I hate that because every time she asks me I say yes! I feel like all people want from me is money!
8 AnswersFamily8 years agoI am tired of people asking me for money?
People always ask me for money. My dad asks me for money and will not go away until I let him borrow it. My mums friend always asks me too.. Once she came in at five in the morning and wouldn't go away until i let her borrow my my money, another time she lied and said my mum told her to ask me.. My mum was out and didn't even know about this.
My mum always asks me too, I have no problem letting her borrow it as she is my mum but she always calls me bad things to her friends and she really doesn't appreciate it, I told her I didn't want to let her borrow it today because it is my money that I have made myself and she went in a mood with me and said to me 'fine then I will sell your coat' she won't really sell my coat, she was just saying that. I feel like all people see me as is a bank! I am trying to learn to say no.. What should I do?
8 AnswersFriends8 years agoI think there may be a ghost in my bedroom?
So I've been ignoring it for a whole and making excuses up for things that have been happening in my house. I was just laying in bed before and I heard lots of rattling in my bedroom and stuff moving slightly under my bed. I have things under my bed and I was shouting at my cat because I thought it was the cat, I then discovered the cat is in bed with my mum so it couldn't have been the cat! The rattling couldn't have just happened by itself.. Something had to touch it. I checked under my bed and then I heard creeking and also something in my bedroom was ring touched because I could hear it. I always hear creeks in my bedroom as if somebody is walking around, it doesn't sound the same as the boiler and I don't have a noisy boiler anyway. I have been ignoring the creeks for ages telling myself it's just the wind but it actually sounds like somebody is banging around. Also, when my cat is in my bedroom she sometimes will suddenly look a somewhere in my bedroom and stare for ages and it looks like she is following something with her eyes. I've also heard alot of constant knocking too.. I am not sure weather this is my next door neighbours but they don't have reasons to be knocking alot on walls. I feel like there is a presence in my bedroom now.. I'm not sure if I have made myself feel like this or if there actually is a presence. I can also hear the stairs creek by them selfs sometimes too.
I am scared :( what should I do?
6 AnswersParanormal Phenomena8 years agoMy mum and sister gang up on me?
My mum gave my sister something I've been wanting for years. My sister doesn't let my mum go out and if she does go out my sister will scream and shout, she calls my mum a bitttch, she throws things off of her face, she orders her around. I thought it was so unfair because I always let my mum borrow my money, borrow my clothes, babysit my sister so she can go out. So anyway I was in my bedroom with my friends little brother and my sister comes into my bedroom and i said loudly get out and my sister said no, she then went and told my mum that I was shouting at the baby! I would never shout at a baby! So I pushed her out of the room with my foot and she attacked me grabbing my ear and nippong me making cuts on my ear and my
Mum slapped me across the head five times. I am not letting this go because I am tired of the way my sister acts and my mum just lets her do it! I now have to lie in bed because I don't want to see them today. I feel like crap..... What would you do?

3 AnswersFamily8 years agoI have fallen out with my mum and sister?
I didn't want to fall out with them but it just happened.
It happened because my mum had given my sister a sky cable box with amazing tv channels and she would not allow me to have one. The reason I got angry wasn't because of the tv thing but because she gives one daughter one thing and not the other.. Allowing my sister to smirk at me and rub it in my face. She told me I get everything but I never ask her for money as I make some myself from selling things. What really annoyed me is that my sister hits my mum, shouts in her face, throws things in her face, calls her a 'bittttch' and whenever my mum goes out my sister will scream and scream. I have to babysit my sister, I let my mum borrow money from me, I let her borrow my clothes, whenever it's my mums birthday I am always the one to plan nice gifts and I also sometimes bring her suprise gifts for no reason, I let her friends borrow things from me, and whenever anybody says anything bad about my mum I always stick up for my mum. She doesn't appreciate this at all and somehow sees me as the bad guy. I don't feel welcome in this home anymore. Today I pushed my sister out of my room as I had told her to get out like five times, she told my mum I was shouting at the baby that was in my room and I wasn't I was shouting at my sister to get out, so I pushed her out of the room and she comes up to me and attacks me grabs my ear and scratches my face and continues to pull my hair.. I got slapped across the head five times from my mum. I don't find this fair and I've had to ignore them because I am getting tired of this. My mum told me to just leave, that made my heart drop a little bit because it makes me feel even more unwanted. I always have to sit in my bedroom alone! I am 17, my sister is 13 and she basically rules my mum. I don't know what to do as I love my mum but I can't have this happen all of the time. What should i do? I've written her a letter but I doubt she will understand as she never does.

11 AnswersComputer Networking8 years agoMy mum says I am stalking her.. Please help?
She says to me today I am stalking her. I'm not actually stalking her.. How can you even stalk your own mother? We live under the same roof it's pretty hard to not bump in to each other! I feel like she doesn't like being in the same room as me. All she ever does is sit on her phone chatting to people.. She will need listen to ANYTHING and her reply is usually just 'yeah Mhhm' she's not really listening. I think she is too wrapped around all her so called friends because from day till night she is constantly on her phone texting, calling her friend and dealing with her friends problems and running around for her friend who uses her. She never deals with any of our problems, never really listens and of we do talk to her we are apparently 'stalking her' she said this because I was in the kitchen with her and I was talking to her' it seems as if she hates that! I see other mothers saying things like 'had a lovely girly night with my daughter tonight' but on a weekend my mum goes out to get away from us! She never wants to stay in. I asked her today if she wanted me to paint her nails with my new nail varnish and she said yeah.. So I say there for half an hour waiting for her to finish texting and then she said 'i can't be bothered.. I am Gojng to bed now, you can do it tomorrow' but as soon as her friend called her she got out of bed.. Why is she like this? I feel like I'm the least of her priorities right now.
2 AnswersFriends8 years agoIs anybody on the cerazette contraception pill?
I was previously on the microgynon pill, I wasn't good with taking the breaks on this and I forgot and got a period for a whole month, I also got some miagranes so they changed me on to the cerazette pill which doesn't need any breaks. I am so so scared incase I gain weight! I've just lost some weight I do not think I would cope well if I gained weight. My mother is on this pill and didn't gain any weight. I'm also scared incase it makes me bleed alot.. I've blead all month on the other pill so I'm praying I won't on this one! Was this pill good to you?
2 AnswersPregnancy8 years agoShould my boyfriend be acting like this?
I called him up tonight to talk as I've never spoken to him all day and he was being miserable and moody and just groaning and saying 'I can't be bothered to talk I am to tired' also basically saying it like a baby. I of course did not keep him on the phone. He went out with his friends tonight so how come he can't even be bothered to talk to be for two minutes? Being tired isn't a good excuse to be moody and miserable an a little bit mean to your girlfriend. He has a job an works but my point is that how come he can go out etc but can't talk to me on the phone? He is mostly nice to me face to face but sometimes acts like this.
1 AnswerSingles & Dating8 years agoMy mum will not listen to anything I say.. Please can you help me?
She put me on the contreceptive pill around a year ago and everything was fine. I started to faint and get migraines and my period became really weird so she suggested I changed pills. I wanted to know more about other pills so I was trying to ask her about the one she was on and about other ones and also I was trying to tell her about my pill last week that I missed two pills (I didn't have sex I'm on it for period reasons) and that might be why I'm on my period once again but she wouldn't listen and I was trying to tell her an all she was doing was sitting on her phone Textin her friends and boys and I said to her 'mum I am trying to tell you something' and she just turned red and screamed in my face 'YOUR ALWAYS F*KING TRYING TO TELL ME SOMETHING' so loud. I was trying to let her know about the pill and get some information about other pills.. It's not cause she's embarrased to talk about it as she is deffintly not. She even does this with other things.. She just doesn't like talking to us and even if we say one thing to her she screams sometimes.. All I wanted was a little information but instead I got screamed at in the face
3 AnswersFriends8 years agoI don't know what has happened to my mum, she treats us horribly now?
She has two daughters.. Me and my thirteen year old sister. It's like she just doesn't want to be around us and when I'm talking to her I feel like I'm a big annoyance to her as if I almost don't seem welcome to sit in the same room as her. She is AlWAYS on her phone on blackberry messenger talking to different guys and her friends and she will not even talk to us. When I need help or advice she will not listed.. She pretends she is listening but she is texting really and she just says 'yeah yeah mhhhm' and when I ask her something she doesn't listen either.. Sometimes she just randomly shouts 'f*king shut up!!!' Even if we're just telling her something she asked. Another thing is, she left my 13 year old in the sister in the house by herself all night. She said she was going to come home at half last eight but didn't arrive home till after midnight and my sister was home alone and scared, my mum wouldn't answer the phone and her excuse was 'my friends were keeping me out' now my mum would never ever have left my sister by herself usually! She can neve stay in all weekend without going out for drinks with her friends clubbing.. Now she does it every weekend as if she hates being with me and my sister. She sometimes goes to her friends house and stays there all day too, and she loves to say bad things about me and my sister! She also lied to my grandmar lastnight because she was supposed to go and collect my sister but she went home drunk and lied to my grandmar and said to her I said I was going to collect my sister.. Which was a lie! So yeah.. I don't know what has happened to her!
3 AnswersParenting8 years agoWould you be annoyed if your mum did this and what would be your reaction?
Lastnight she said to me she was going to her friends house, she came back with a man. I opened the front door to find a man standing behind her I had never even seen before. Apparently her friend tried to set her up with him. So me and my sister had no waning or knowledge that a man was going to come back. We didn't know his name or who he was as he's never been to the house before. The thing that really annoyed me is that they both went to bed together! He let him in her bed on the first night he had been to our house and me or my sister don't even know who he is an my mum has not told us anything about him and never told us she had met someone. I heard them kissing and obviously if she took him to bed it was only for one thing or else she would've just let him stay on the sopha down stairs. She came in to my bedroom pretending she didn't want him there and I was thinking 'if you really didn't want him in your bed you would not have him in your bed' its really annoyed me as this is how she usually introduces guys.. She sneaks them in and they end up staying over every night and me and my sister do not know them so we feel awkward in our own house. I would've liked her to tell me and my sister there is going to be a guy, not just sneak him in to bed. Would this make you angry?
