What is it with my family???
Is it just me who happens to have the worst family record of health???
I sorry guys...I can't actually open up to people, I can't even talk to a counciler. I can talk to my boyfriend but he got his own problems to be dealing with and mine don't really compare to his.
I just need to get something off my chest. Here it goes, OK My dad had a tuma on his brain and had an operation at 18, he takes sometimes up to 9 pills 4 times a day because if he don't he won't be here tomorrow! He has constant bad headaches and shouts when he don't mean to - then we have my mum. She had asophicus reflux problems about 4 yrs ago. two years ago I woke up in the middle of the night with a sick feeling that something was wrong. I walked downstairs to find my mum having some kind of attack ...this led to her paralysis. The doctor's at basildon are generally sh*te seeing they diagnosed this as 'hysterical' ...smacking her in a mental hospital for two weeks which obviously for someone who needs serious medical help and the real answer to her paralysis! It took years for her to get better...all the anger that she had for the twurp who put her in there built up and my mum changed. I love her, but unfortunatly she isn't the same as she used to be. She is defensive and angry shouts at me over nothing and generally can not be pleasent sometimes.
I am lucky enough to still have all of my grandparents alive. But here is the list - My Grandpa ern, He has been battlin cancer in the stomach for 6 years. Hre has also had Prostate cancer, has Emphesemia, Asthma and constant bronchitis. Combine this with two seriously arthritic knees and you only begin to feel sorry for such a great man especially as he was told he may have lung cancer to-but this turned up to be a c*ck up thankfully. My nan had a heart attack jus before last year and now she has athritis of the spine. (I found out last week)She cant dress her self yet she is to proud to go into a wheel chair.
My other grandad has Diabetis, was beaten up year before last and is now peeing blood...Since last time I checked this isnt normal and fairly worrying. O and he is suffering from something i cant remember the name of and has supoosedly got three months to live.
My nanny has battled breast cancer for yrs. She has athritis everywhere and can;t walk really. I just got off the phone that she has cancer again and grandad is bleeding from....yea.
So right now. After recollecting things. PLus the fact My cousin and brother also had serious illnesses when they were babies Im thinkin my family doesn't have much luck with health! MMMM ... heard of curses. Not so sure whether to believe my family is cursed but looking at the evidence I thinkon so. So this line of ill health normal?? Or seriously not??
I really don't know why i writing this. I suppose if I keep it all to myself I go downhill so if anyone got any suggestions or confidence that I shouldnt be depressed please please make me smile! I really need to at the mo....

Yea! My grandad is 78 and OK he damn aint healthy (as u now know) but he has a gleemin full set of teeth and it wasnt till last year he went grey! O the little things in life..
Thanks for your support guys. I really needed to get it off my chest and reading about everyone else really helped. I also talked to my boyfriend about it and had a big hug so it aint all bad! :)

I would hate to be senile so I didnt know who was who etc and woul hate to be fully brain damaged too so I couldnt control myself. I think in all honesty I would prefer to be dead than have a long drawn out sufference.
Luckily I shouldnt go bald, my dad is nearly 50 and barely grey!

All I've got to worry about is baldness. And seniality. My gran wasn't herself for the last few years, and after she died they discovered she had cancer as well. It's not something you like to think about.
I don't want to see my dad go through what my gran did, and I don't want to go through what he did after losing his dad, his younger brother then his mother. But it happens, unfortunatly.

My family doesn't have a great medical past to be honest, but I really aren't going to go into it with you all. I'm likely to inherit some bad stuff like high blood pressure and things from my relatives but theres nothing I can do.
It is awful to see the ones you love suffering and knowing there is nothing anyone can do about it. It makes you feel worthless and useless. I am a firm beleiver in fate and think everything happens for a reason, I have stuck by this and it is probably the one thing that has kept me relatively sane throughout all the things I have been through.
If you ever need to talk about anything to an 'internet person' who are aren't ever likely to meet then I am sure many people on theres forums will be likely to listen to you and offer advice. I for one know what it is like and will be willing to try and help you out anytime.
Take care and keep your chin up.

I'm really sorry to hear about all that. That is very unlucky for you and your family. So unfortunate.
You must be having it real hard! Having people around you with all sorts of illnesses. And I feel for you.
My family are like that too, although, not as bad. My dad is like your dad, except he had a stroke at 34 and hasn't been the same ever since.
You worry that you'll end up being like that when you're older because everyone in the family is ill all the time. And it's not nice.
My grandma has just found out that she has months to live too. Because of a problem with her liver from excessive alcohol use. Not nice,
But, I'm not too good at making people smile! So I just hope that you and your family stay strong! =)

Lol! arent we all!
The General thought here is your unlucky :(
thanks
Well curses are about as real as the tooth fairy, father christmas and the pope...exclude that last one. At the end of the day its difficult to keep a clean bil of health. And judging from the people suffering from these problems i'd have to mention age, these people are clearly getting old (with the exception of your parents) and as age rises so does the risk of illness.
I think you were just unfortunate and unlucky but lucky in some sences. Its unfortunate that your parents have both had a run in with serious illness, but if your family were cursed then i dont think your Dad would still be here, your extremely lucky that he is still with you.
I'd have to say since theres no way to cure mnost of these age induced illnesses your going to have to help out those in need and put on a brave face.
I hope this has helped, its the best i could do...
