News for me just seems to get worse I was lied to and used in my last relationship. This is sad im very close to this person and it really hit me hard today, I have already lost loved ones in my life before but you can't prepare for it. Life throws a lot of curveballs at you just when you think you found happiness things like this always seem to happen to me =(. May not be the best introduction but im an honest person not afraid to say what's on my mind good luck to all of you wish you all the best.

I'm very sorry to hear that, I lost an uncle to Leukemia. However... this isn't "happening to you" It's more happening the person diagnosed with Leukemiaflowerforyou

Unfortunately, as long as we are breathing, we suffer losses of all kinds. God bless the person with leukemia and all those effected by it.

Best wishes and welcome on here!!! flowerforyou

Yup, what Jill said. I'm sorry, I know it's difficult for you but it's 100x harder for the person diagnosed. Trust me, I know, I've had leukemia and been on daily chemo for 12 years. Be blessed that it's not happening to you and treasure the time you have with this person, whether it's a week or 100 years. flowerforyou Sure, life is filled with loss but you know what, it's got a lot more going for it than that. Life is filled with day-to-day beauty, love, joy and peace, but most people tend to overlook that and just focus on the bad. Well, you know what, when you think about it, the bad is few and far between the good, if you just learn to open your eyes and look around you.
