Empty

My uncle was diagnosed with terminal cancer today. We just found out it was cancer a couple of weeks ago. It was initially located in his throat and stomach, meaning it was operable, but it has now spread to his liver. Essentially, that means that there isn't anything they can do and he has about a year left to live. I love my uncle and I am close to him. I feel such heartache for him, my aunt, and my cousins. I can't imagine how to deal with news like this. I can't decide whether it's better to know you have a time limit or if it's better to be surprised. I wish I knew how to feel or react...terminal illness is just...it leaves me empty. I just hope I can provide support and love for my family when they need me to give it.

For all my friends and family reading this right now, I wish you love, light, and happiness. Hugs and blessings to you all.
