    I have been staying with my dad because my mom doesn't want me around when she is sick, which is all the time. My dad works at night so I spend a lot of time alone since I'm not with my mom. I'm afraid she is going to die and I'll blame myself for not being there more. more...

Zoe - 14 years old

I cry myself to sleep all the time, I wish I could talk to my mum but she's got enough going on.

About 3 years ago i found out my mum has heart disease, bone marrow disease and COPD. My mum is very ill i hate seeing her like it, i wish i could take the pain away, and about 1 month ago i found out my mum has blood cancer. 

I broke down when she told me, the doctors told my mum she will have it for the rest of her life. Her body is getting worse shes now in a wheel chair, shes asleep all the time because her body is so exhausted, i hardly have a relationship with my mum now because she sleeps so much.

I hate seeing her in pain, she has real bad back problems aswell and i hate it when she has her bad days she tell me "im useless i cant do anything". I say "its not your fault you're like this god choose the wrong person". I cry myself to sleep all the time, i wish i could talk to my mum but shes got enough going on. I just wish the doctors or something could cure my mum! Shes my rock and shes been there for me through everything, I love you mum!! xx
