Default I must talk about this!

My husband has bladder cancer and is on chemo looking toward removable of the bladder after the chemo.

His brother had stomach cancer and died the 6th of this month. We went to SD from Ks to the funeral. I did not cry until we were at the buriel. and then very little. The reality of it for me is it could be my husband. It was a very stressful funeral knowing that we were burying someone dear with cancer and standing next to somone very dear that has it.

I have eaten over cancer for over a year now knowing that my br-in-law had it and then my husband. Has it taken away the cancer "NO" Has it helped me deal "NO" has it brought me comfort "No" well maybe for five minutes. Prior to this I did not use food for about two or three years to deal with life.

I'm going to AA meetings and that's it so I must do the work. I have no sponser and if there is anyone here willing to sponser me and help me please pm me so I can get in touch. There are no OA meetings in my area and only one women that goes to the AA meeting I attend so any help even it's only by phone I would appreciate.

thank you for listening

I am not a sponsor but I am sorry for what you are going through and can sympathize as I lost my father to brain & lung cancer on October 11th and I too turned to food and gained 8 of my lost 21 lbs back. Keep your head up and keep posting theres lots of support here.
