So my dad told me yesterday he has testicular cancer, and in pretty sure it's spread elsewhere, maybe his lungs, were not sure yet, or how far along it is, but I just can't cope and keep crying!
He's meant to retire next Friday after 32 years in the police, and now this has happened? He's had to cancel his holiday and everything. Everyone keeps telling me I need to be strong for him, but I just can't hold myself together and that's makin me feel worse! I lost my auntie mill last month to cancer, and that was like my first experience of someone dying.
I realise this is a massively horrible subject, but does anyone have like suggestions of how to cope? I'm going back to work tomorrow (I work at Asda as well as beauty) and I don't just wanna burst into tears. My manager has said I can take time off and that but everyone keeps telling me I need to keep busy.
I only just had my 21st last month (the week of my auntie mills funeral) I can't cope losing my dad :'(
I don't mean to put a downer on anyone's day, sorry! Just any suggestions please xx
