Cancer and Friends?!


Question: Cancer and Friends!?
I have had lung cancer since I was ten from living in LA!. I am now almost 16, and I really want my freinds to know!. I have only let one of my bestest friends know about my cancer, and that was not on my own will!. In the past, all my friends from my grade school found out and were totally "kiss ****es" about it!. I have found friends I trust more in my new school!.

The actually question: Should I tell some of my friends!? I don't want them to be all nice, when i am a total bit*ch sometimes!. Like my spirit is going to haunt them if i die one a bad note with them!. Help, please!? And how to tell them!. I don't thing they realize that i don't need suport!. I am fighting it of VERY well, and it's been so long, i'm not scared at all of the idea of death!. Thanks!.

Answers:
If you didnt want to come out with it you would not be questioning your decision to keep it a secret!. I have a friend and relative with cancer at this current time!. I feel that if your friends are true to you they will try to treat you exactly the same as before!. And not kiss your butt constantly!. They will be supportive but still joke with you as normal!. Good luck!. Hopefully by letting others know your situation you realize you are giving inspiration to others about what someone with an illness can accomplish!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sorry you had such a rocky start having lung cancer at such a young age!. There is nothing wrong with friends as you put it: "kissing your a*s" because they know you have cancer, they care!.
Could it be that you are afraid if you tell your new friends that you will look weak in their eyes and not be able to do normal activities with them!? Right now all seems normal so I wouldn't bring it up until you feel comfortable!.
Is your cancer in remission!? If yes then tell your new friends you had it and it is remission and you are doing well but you'd rather not talk about it, you want to move foward!.
Have you ever talked to a therapist!? Maybe you should you have a lot of emotions cause you have been through so much it will help you get a lot of tension off your chest!.
Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com
