Hi, my name is Tess. A few years ago, my grandmother passed away because of cancer. I took care of her when she lay in the hospital until we have to take her home. She used to be such a strong woman. She loved gardening when she was still well. I remember seeing her weeding her large garden under the sun without complaining. When I saw her on her sick bed hardly able to do anything, I was devastated. I did all my best to take care and give her comfort at least. Well, she passed away in much pain. Her cancer left her wincing every now and then but she never complained. We just knew she was in much pain. We know. Her eyes told us so.
Two years ago, my father suffered several complications and later we learned he has cancer. While my mother does all the caregiving, I visit them daily to see to their needs. It is a journey I still take and this blog gives me the opportunity to express my thoughts and things I learned taking care of my love ones with cancer.
