teenagers
teenagers After my 2nd EC last wed, i was really down sick of nausea and vomiting, and the rest of the horrible side effects which i seem to have had them all !!! My 15 year old daughter left me this letter on the computor for me to read, and i thought i would like to share it with you.
To My Mum
I wanted to write to tell you i love you lots, too much to explain. every minute you are on my mind. I just wish you would understand how i felt about you mum i could never let you go. i know we are going to fight this battle, we’ve come so far we can’t go back, all we can do is fight till the end no matter what it takes we will win. we have got so much to come and we can’t stop now.
This is the reason why i carry on.
Sometimes she is the typical moody teenager but when she is so nice it makes up for the bad times.
So everybody out there going through this c**p, good luck to you all, keep smiling, be positive and we will all get there in the end.

bless them hi mandy
i have a daughter coming up to 15 and thought what your daughter wrote you was fabulous.
sometimes because they are moody and don’t want to be seen out in daylight with us we assume they don’t care or worry about us but they do whilst mine tries to be so grown up i forget she is still very vulnerable and worries about me lots. she was very upset when my friend passed over from this b****dy disease and left her 2 daughters without their mum, so i think of those times when her room is messy i can’t see the floor or all the dvd’s are out of their case mixed up and all the electrical equipement is left on as she trails from room to room and stop myself from strangling her lol and give her a big hug then threaten her life if she doesn’t clean it up
take care and have a good christmas
am smiling and feel positive

Beautiful! Teenagers often get bad press, Mandy, but what your little girl (because she will always be your little girl) wrote genuinely made me cry.
I rarely cry when I read posts by sufferers yet there is something about loved ones that gets me every time. I think we often forget what pain they are experiencing and how they feel they have to keep it to themselves.
My little girl is only 16 months. I have no idea whether she knows something is amiss. I guess time will tell but, for now, not wanting to harm or damage her in any way is what keeps me going.
You have raised a wonderful daughter and she will help you fight this.
Love
Lola
