Cancer days

Well i am here contemplating finishing my homework and thinking Lord i am tired. LOL. Had a good day today. Lots of cancer patients i have seen but it is all worth it in the long run. Several are really sick and probably will be gone by 3 months. That is always a hard thing to go through. Still upsets me pretty bad but this is my job. Someone has to do it and i pray everyday i can be some kind of light in this dark disease that takes people away.

  1. Hello Collette,

    Bless you for your service and bringing light to those who suffer. Do you have all ages? I can say I have not seen this suffering first hand because no one close to me has died from this terrible disease, at least while we were close. I have cousins that I was no longer geographically or physically close to who died of cancer. I have a dear friend now whose prostate cancer has been treated, has not spread and is in remission. He is doing great. I have been trying to encourage him to eat right and take supplements that strengthen his immune system.

    What can you do for those who are suffering?

  2. Colette,
    I have found that it will always upset you watching someone die. I had a very hard time with it for the longest. The way I made it easier in my mind for me to handle it was knowing that I was there and gave them the best of myself in their time of need. Believe it or not, that is what is appreciated. It takes a special angel to be able to care for those in need. I have taken care of all kinds of patients in the nursing homes and really do understand how you feel.
