My brother's Cancer

My 6year old brother was diagnosed with Non hodgkin's lymphoma in June 2009. He has finished his chemo but is still having to go back in. I caught a bug from school and I was ill and had a cough. But because I was always near my brother, he caught it. But because his immune system was low it hit him worse and his temperature was up and he was really unwell. My dad called the ward and he had to go back to hospital. I'm really upset.

Dear PeachyElf

I hope you're not saying that you feel guilty because your brother caught your cold. You know his illness is not your fault, and you'll have hopefully been told this.

You know we humans often feel guilty. I don't know why, but it's part of our makeup. If you did'nt feel guilty about this it would be something else.

We have to send our most positive thoughts for your brother's recovery. With your love too, he'll get well soon.


Best wishes


Kathy
