Cancer and Treatment

I mentioned in my previous post the fear of death that my son has developed ever since my  brother in law died from cancer few months ago.  He oftentimes told us that he doesn't want us to die  which is very sad to hear.  He is only 5 years old and he has this anxiety of the people around him  dying.  Cancer is a dominant  illness in my husband's side of the family.  His Mom, some Aunts, and his brother  died of  the killer C.  It was really a hard  bomb  for all of us because  the doctors assured the family that my  brother  in law will be alright after the surgery 

On the lighter note, the unfortunate loss of a family member  became an eye opener to my kids to take care of their health.  It made them more aware about the fact of the cancer and the things that they can and need to do  to avoid it.  Every now and then, my husband and I would talk about  his brother and he still can't believe how fast the  illness took him away from us.  You really never  knew what will happen to you because one day you are fine and the next day, you are sicker than a dog.  The wisest thing to do is to  keep fit and  get checked up  every often so that you know  what is happening with your health and your body.

My husband is  is so  conscious about his health so he always have  himself check by the doctor to make sure that he is not developing any  serious ailment.  He is aware that there are treatment alternative at HIFU for prostate cancer nowadays.  But even so, he  is  always worried of finding out that one day he has  the killer disease that  is always taking toll on his  family.  For now, prayer is  what I do all the time.
