After people die it's called grief. What is it called now? Because in my opinion it's worse - you spend time with them and chat to them and don't know if it'll be the last time.
I put a message on here in July saying that m brother's cancer had returned despite a bone marrow transplant and lots of treatment. He feels now that he has very little time - he is in lots of pain and finding life a struggle. He got married three weeks ago and it was the most amazing weekend. Every time I'm with him I wonder how I will survive without him in the world - how the world will go on without him. He has everything ahead of him and a happier and more fulfilled life than the majority of people I know.
What is this horrible horrible time, and how are we supposed to deal with it?
