My mum has been diagnosed for the second time with breast cancer, she had only been in remission for about a year when we found out the cancer had come back. This time much more aggressive, in more places, and it wasn't going to be curable.
We were all shocked and upset, but my mum has been bravely fighting for a year now. But, her fight hasn't been without its low points, and I know that she can feel incredibly depressed and alone and can take her emotions out on the only people she can, her family.
My dad tends to get the most of her mood swings, and I feel upset and angered by this, because all my dad wants to do is help make her life better. I get confused because I still get angry with my mum, like any child or teenager does, but now I feel guilty for feeling this way.
Am I still able to feel upset with my mum when she does something, or says something I don't agree with? Am I supposed to just sit back and let her take out her frustrations on someone that does everything to help her?
