whats the hardest thing you ever had to deal with?

Answer 1

In 1996 I had a recurrence of cancer that metastisized to my abdoman, kidney area and right lung. I had a 7 1/2 hr operation requiring 49 staples in my stomach area. After having the elders of the church pray over me and anoint me with oil which increased my faith, I went to Indianapolis Indiana to go to Indiana University Medical Center and was put in the trasplant ward at North 5 where I endured two stem cell trasplants and two rounds of high dose chemotherapy in Nov and Dec of 96. There was a 40-50% chance of this working as I was in an isolated room for a total of 35 days altogether. On Dec 21st I was declared cancer free and thankful to the Good Lord as my faith was rewarded. I feel great today and recently visited the Hospital with my sweetheart and visited a patient there named Gary and talked to him about my experience and gave him some hope and inspiration to beat his cancer too. We all agreed together in prayer and it was a truly awesome experience. My experience with this has made me appreciate life so much more and has increased my faith in God. I honestly believe that it was really harder on my loved ones having to watch me go through this.

Answer 2

Finding out the man of my dreams and father of my child was a pathological liar and dangerous abuser.

Then he fooled the court ordered psychiatrist so well that the psychiatrist told the courts that I was lying about all the harm he caused me. Imagine being severely harmed and betrayed by someone and then being told you imagined it all and the perpetrator gets off scot free.

Because of that, they gave him unsupervised visitation with my vulnerable little boy. I lived in constant fear of my child being killed. So many close calls, so many bruises and cuts - always explained away. Only a mother of a child with cancer could understand the fear. I began to think of him as such. My child is in remission now (he only calls and doesn't come anymore) but it could flare up at any time. Or go away completely. Or kill him tommorow. No way to know.

Answer 3

When my husband was diagnosed with cancer. Rectal cancer. That was in May 2005. He went through chemo & radiation treatments, 3 surgeries, and more chemo. As of now, things are fine. He's not going to be considered officially "cancer free" until 5 years have lapsed, but all checks they put him through are still showing clear. But those months of surgeries was the hardest time I've ever gone through in my life.

Answer 4

Nearly loosing my first child during the first days of her life. She caught something (maybe the flu) but they didn`t know what and she wouldn't eat! The way the Dr was talking to us, we were sure she was going to die soon. Things went better wit and she was fine after. We didn`t sleep much the first 3 months and did nothing else then taking care of her. It's only because she became a great bundle of joy that we were able to have another child.
