I am so ANGRY and need to vent!!!

As a mom I totally understand your frustration. I am SO sorry for your losses. But as a mom, I truly thank you for this touching post. It reminded me today, as I was becoming very frustrated with my three very energetic little boys, how very very blessed I am. I'm going to go hug them right now.

My heart breaks for you, your friend and and everyone and their loved ones who have to contend with such a devastating disease that robs children and adults of a beautiful life. It's not fair. I agree. I'm so so sorry. :(

(((Hugs)))
 
I was having a crap day today until now....none of what I was complaining about matters. I'm going to hug my kids right now!
I am MAD for you!
Love and prayers are with you.
Sincerely,
 
I am angry, too. :mad:

Too many of us have lost too many to cancer:( I know that we learn from each death (personally, as well as the medical community), but it just seems like one too many.

Gayle~You are helping all of us to vent in a healthy way. It actually makes me feel a little better to know that we are all mad at cancer. Thank you!

Every little bit helps. Remember the anger next time someone asks you to support a cancer walk or other cancer fighting research.

You know Jenn, after all I have known that have passed to cancer - that is the typically the only area I donate these days.

It is getting hard when the forms come around for the Cancer Walks because I have so many lumanaries to write down ! :mad:

Gayle - I remember a while ago when you posted about this young man - I am so very sorry you and your DS have gone through this with another that you were close to.

If only our ANGER would make it go away. With all this technology - why oh why can they not figure this out?

They can create living beings from a single cell but cannot figure out how to kill a deadly one?

At this point all I have to offer is understanding, additional madness and funds to help try to solve this vicious disease.

Thank you for the reminder . . .
 
Sincere thanks to EVERYBODY for the comments, support, sharing your own stories, and general friendship. I'm much better today. I was just so emotional yesterday and short on patience. I just had to get out of the house last night so the kids and I went to the mall. We picked up the Build A Bear gift card and will be delivering it this afternoon.

Just so many thoughts that feed this anger....the research and the plain simple statement that Jacque made:
"They can create living beings from a single cell but cannot figure out how to kill a deadly one?"

It's just so frustrating.

Thanks again.

Gayle
 
Gayle - happy to hear you are better today.

I am glad you came here to vent because I think it really does help. We have such a great support group here !

What a wonderful way to help this little boy's sister remember. I am sure she will be thrilled as well as will her parents.

Will definitely keep all of you in my thoughts . . .
 
Yes, Gayle...love the idea about Build a Bear. I will have to remember that one.

Oh, and after re-reading your original post...you don't swear?!!!!!! Ever???? How do you get through the day??!!!! JK, of course!!!!!:D
Jenn:p
 
Jenn, I think the harshest word I say is HECK! lol Every now and then FREAKIN'. That's about it. :) Good Catholic Girl here with all the Catholic guilt that goes along with it! ;)

Gayle
 
Good Catholic girl here, too (even an all girls Catholic high school!!), but I swear with the best of them (when I am not at work and never in the presence of my kids). It is a kind of release for me somehow. I give up swearing every year for Lent!! I think that I actually picked up the habit of swearing from the all girl high school!

Good for you, though...I should make every day a Lenten day, huh? :)
Jenn :)
