Goodness what a sensitive little soul you are! Terrified of cancer yourself (see his other questions) but thinking it doesn't matter a damn if someone who's been around a few more years than you have gets it.
Well, you are only 16, and your Q&A and your style of writing show you are a rather immature 16. Anyone over about 25 seems old to a 16 year old, and the less imaginative of them cannot conceive that older people might have lives that are worth living or feelings to be considered.
A cancer diagnosis is devastating and terrifying however old you are. Losing someone you love is devastating however old they are.
I was diagnosed with cancer at 50; I am very glad that I didn't get it when younger, very glad I had all those cancer-free years, and I'm very distressed when I hear of younger people getting cancer. But I'm still wish - oh how I wish - that I had never had it and I'm still terrified of it returning.
Being older does not mean that a deadly disease with grueling treatments and no cure is easy to face, or that a painful and prolonged death is easy to contemplate.
People are worried when their grandparents (who may be any age from 30something to 100) get cancer because they love them, they don't want them to suffer. And they know they may lose them.
Even when someone has lived to a ripe old age, there is grief at losing them as well as comfort in knowing they had a long and good life. You know nothing about grieving yet - evidenced by your answer to someone asking how she could help her children get over the death of a friend - 'They should be grateful they're still alive'. But you'll learn.
Grow up just a little.
Maybe they feel bad for their parents.. you have to remember.. grandparents are someones parents, someones brother or sister, cousin, someones friend - regardless of age! They can still experience pain and be scared and it is just human to not want to see someone go through those things no matter what age they are.
WOW, how old are you?
Clearly not yet old enough to have loved someone your entire life only to have them taken away at a moments notice. Not old enough to value what you have in this world enough to realize the loss until its too late! & Clearly not old enough to have the compassion or common sense not to ask such a stupid question!!!
let me ask you this, would you want your mother to die in front of you from a disease that is commonly known for killing and cancer could never get rid of u could get rid of it but it'll come back in like 10 months really this is just a stupid question to ask, shows you have no love
Oh my god!
Even though he is old, he is still someone you should have respect and love for. Do not forget that you will also get old one day. How would you feel if your grand son/daughter said something like that?
I'm 60 and have cancer . I'm not afraid of dying, its how ill die i don't want to die in pain and i dont want to be a burden to my family , would like to see my grandchildren grow up, and i know the kind of loss my children will fill as i wont be here when they need me.
People CARE about their grandparents and don't want them to suffer, even though "they r old"!
Ask that question to yourself when you are a Grandparent and wanting to see your grand babies grow up.
One day you will be a Grandparent and then you will understand.
They love their grandparents and they don't want them to leave them. It is a normal reaction for many people when they are very close to the person who is dying.
because you don't want to lose someone you love. Just because they are old doesn't change that. Also just because they are old doesn't mean they have become redundant.
My mom died of cancer at age 70 and my dad at age 83. My dad was still walking 2 -4 miles a day 2 mths before he died. My mom was still watching a video of my (at that time) 10 yr old son playing soccer a week before she died.
Also you never want to watch a loved one suffer..and cancer causes both physical and mental suffering.
It didn't matter their age..or my age...they were my mama and daddy and I wasn't ready to lose them.
We all have to die, but we don't have to die in agonizing pain in a daily struggle to function. No one is happy about getting cancer, no matter how long they've lived.
I don't think the problem is that people worry about their grandparents, I think the problem is that you don't. I feel sorry for you. Your incapacity to love anyone will keep you from doing anything worth while in your life. Do us all a favor and keep your stupidity to yourself.
