you should set up goals for yourself
1. get healthy (for starters)
2. Find one thing good that happened each day and write it down in a journal(it can be really stupid, it just has to be positive)
3. try to set times a day when you won't let yourself cry(try running or something active)
4. spend as much time with your friends as possible doing fun stuff( like eating)


as long as the yumor can be removed you will be ok, and your 15 and shouldnt worry about having kids. you can always adopt. dont get yourself worked up over things you cant control. live your life to the fullest because thers no day like today.

I am extremely sorry to hear about your condition.
However, you can't spend the rest of your life being depressed.
First, I think you should pray. Ask god to get you through this tough obstacle. He will listen.
Second, stop stressing. I know it sounds hard because stress isn't always easy to relieve but if you relax and enjoy life, it could possibly help your condition. When you get home from your appointments try taking a 3O minute to 1 hour hot bath (add bubbles if you'd like!). Hot baths can be very relaxing from stressful days.
I know it's hard to ignore the fact that you have a tumor but you can't let it take over your life. As you can see, it has become apart of you and you are allowing it to effect you in ways that are destroying you.
Spend time with your family, make these moments last. I promise it'll be worth it.
Call friends and make plans with them. Try to get out more when you aren't at your appt's. (like before or after). I am positive that some good fun with friends and family will take your mind off the tumor, even if for those few moments; it'll be worth it.

Aw, I'm so sorry! But the truth is, brighten up! There is probably a VERY low chance or percentage that the surgery will go wrong...and I'm pretty sure you will be able to have kids. There are some people that can't have any kids, regardless! If there is that small chance that the surgery goes wrong, there is always adoption or possibly In Ventro Fertilization! Good luck with that! ^_^ I hope all goes well!

If it bothers you that much, ask your parents about seeing a therapist or taking depression pills.

I am so sorry to hear that. I can understand why you are stressed and depressed. You need someone to talk to. Someone who can be there for you at anytime to listen to you. Can you talk to your parents about it? How about a best friend? A teacher at school? You need to have a good support system. I hope that all goes well with the surgery and you will be able to have kids when you get older. Good Luck!!

First, pray to God. If you don't believe in God, pray incase then see a therapist. The chances are probably low of it going wrong. If it does get wrong, there are always children that want to be adopted. Calm yourself by reading a book, or getting into conversations. Listen to music, or put your mind onto other stuff. You will be less worried about it.

i am so sorry about your situation. well all you can do is pray that everything goes right.God has plans for everyone and all you do is take care of yourself and know that you will be OK. i was so scared when i was 17 and i had cervical cancer but i made it and see my doctor every 6 months just to make sure it does not come back. we all have obstacles some of us just have harder ones. good luck

There are worse things in the world than not having a baby, there's adoption ya know. There's a lot of kids out there who need homes.

tell your doctor you are really stressed out.. they can recommend a therapist. you need someone to talk to, and these are big problems you got goin on. A trained professional WILL help put your mind at ease.. and they dont always just throw pills at you.. they care too much to do that.

i would too. big scary thing like that, but in all acuality there is not much you can do about it, try to live life and enjoy what you have now, thats all anyone can do. Do not try to be "super" just be you. really its about accpeting the cards your delt and working that hand to your advantage, you can be down and out right now or you can pcik yourself up and scream at the top of your lungs "This the best you can do... screw you i am going to live just to piss you off!!!!!!" and do it.

Try to stay calm, and ask the doctor if there is anything you can take/do to help you with the stress.
