Rules

Edit: I have updated the rules:

ADDENDUM TO RULE THREE (3): Because I do NOT want another instance of shit that happened this month, and the shit that happened in @anonrising, Fandom Politics are NOT ALLOWED. This includes, but is not limited to:

Anime
Fanfiction/Fanart
Anti/Proshipping war bullshit

*These subjects almost inevitably bring up Anti/Proship bullshit and there are folks on both sides who might be triggered by certain content, or feel dismissed by various argument points on both sides. As a result, THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED. This site is for DRAGON DRAMA, not your Pro/Anti shipping bullshit. Take it to fandomwank or fandom_secrets or whatever other platform they're using nowadays.

anon with the dad who has terminal cancer here

This morning we found out that the cancer spread to both of my dads lungs and his lymph nodes. It is very aggressive. We are spending as much time with each other as possible and preparing for the future. I am scared.

That is all.

I'm so sorry, only the best wishes to you.

ayrt

thank you nonny. And I wish the best for you as well because eveyone is fighting their own battles

I wish I had words to make you feel better, but I wish you and your family all the best. I am so sorry :(

Thanks for the word, mod. It's tough to see your loved one waste away as you stand there, powerless. We are taking things one day at a time and enjoying what time we have left together.

I'm so sorry, anon. I'm just a fellow anonymous voice on the internet but I'm sending you all the strength and thoughts in the world.

I really appreciate it, nonny. I am just glad people are kind enough here to let me vent something that I am not ready to talk to with friends just yet. It's so hard to not break down as I talk about it, the inevitable is creeping closer and closer and there's nothing we can do to stop it. ...Thank you.

i'm sorry nonny. i wish there was more i could say/do for you, but i'll be keeping you and your dad in my thoughts.

My dads cancer has now spread to his liver and lymph nodes in his spine....it won't be long now.

And since I am here...I just want to say this is has been one hell of a journey, anons. My perspective on life and death have definitely shifted ever since we found out that my dad had cancer a little over a year ago. (wasnt considered terminal yet..) Death is inevitable. It's the one thing we are guaranteed in life no matter who you are..we will all get it. And you know what? I accept that. One day it will happen to me too. All of us. But I don't feel nearly as scared of it as I did before this whole situation.

I say this because my dad, even from day 1 of cancer, just...kept living. He decided to stay at his office job for the sake of getting out of bed until he couldn't anymore. (and not for money) He decided to keep up with his physical hobbies until he couldn't anymore. He still watches youtube videos of different things he can cook and makes us up dishes to try that he thought were cool. He is honing his guitar skills, making and singing new songs because he thinks its cool. He just.. keeps living until he can't anymore.

Whats stopping me from adopting this mentality? And you now what? What the fuck is stopping the universe from literally killing me within the next 5 minutes due to an aneurism or some undetected birth defect like a pinhole in my heart from ending me right now? Absolutely nothing. There is nothing from making me die before my father does and I accept this. I may feel powerless because there's nothing I can do to save my dad as I watch him slowly get weaker by the day, but I do have the power over the person I want to be out of this.

So..Fuck it, I will live my life until I can't anymore. Death will get me some day but it hasn't caught up to me just yet! :D

I'm wishing the best to you, nonny, always.

thank you, nonny, and I wish the best for you as well. I know you're fighting your own battles!

sa/"OP"

oof okay so rereading this post, if the mods decide that if this topic is a little bit too sensitive/deep then theyre more than welcome to delete/freeze my topic because I realize it is a bit much for a pixel dragon anon community

It's a deep subject, but you clearly needed to vent and get support. I cannot fault anyone for that.

I'm wishing you and your family all the best, nonny. I don't know what faith you have, but I hope your father has a safe journey to the afterlife of his beliefs.

Thanks again for letting me vent, mods. It means so much I can just let these emotions out without having my name attached to it and get "pity points" that I never asked for. It's nice to just be another anon screaming into the void and not have a spotlight on me.

It's why we made this comm ♥
