september 2006 my mum had a huge tumour removed from her leg with a course of radio afterwards. it was then diagnozed to be sarcoma which is quite a rare kind. a year on and it has got into her blood steam and trvelled straight to her lungs with about 11 in total. she has now started chemo and has lost her hair which to me was hard.not only have we had this to deal with but also my brother having depression and overdosed twice now. im finding it heart braking dealing with all of this and its totally changing the person in me. i have become so angry and frustrated at every little thing and everyone who means something to me. i guess its just a reaction to the thought of losing mum but its just not me.is it normal to act this way? is it normal to push people away who mean the most???
fairly mixed up!!

hi, dont worry at all about the way you are reacting, you've prob heard it a million times but, everyone copes with things in their own way.
but you've gotta ask yourself, is it actually helping you feel better, or would you rather have the closeness of the ones you love?
you know, it might be worth talking to your doctor about this, its important you are strong for your mum but you are only human... you might find it helpful to get some sort of therepy - they will be able to give you advice on how to deal with things and keep strong, even prescribe sleeping tablets to make sure your getting enough sleep.
i hope you are ok, and your mum... my thoughts are with you and i hope everything turns out ok :)
