Thank you Andrew for opening this Thread.

So many of us, just from the Planet, have been effected by Cancer. Either had/has it and/or are Caregivers to loved ones that are going through it.

I've been on both sides of the Fence and currently, my Mom's Caregiver. I now realize that each case is unique and each person reacts differently.

Having Cancer certainly is no picnic, but it's YOU that has it, so it's a bit easier to go through.

When you're the Caregiver, it seems more torturous to me. I want to take on the physical reactions, I would rather have my own hair fall out then theirs, I'd rather be the one that needs to force the food down, etc. It's just excruciating to sit by, feeling totally helpless, watching your loved one travel through the journey you're so familiar with.

Sometimes I wonder - which is worse.
