She has cancer that cannot be cured. She was diagnosed 6 months ago, and we recently learned that there is no cure. She is now 23. And she is crying about not wanting to abandon her stuff when she dies. I don’t know what to do. I want her to live the rest of her life worry free and happy. But I don’t know what to tell her. Does anyone have any advice?<br><br><br><br>Update 2: I cannot do justice to all the people who have reached out. Thank you all for the kind words and support. It means a lot. I will not be able to message everyone back, because I can’t. But I have cried multiple times because so many people cared. I will read every message though. Thank you for caring and being so good to us. Thank you.<br><br>Update: Wow! Thank you to everyone who reached out. I gave her this thread and she read it all. And she cried and laughed. And she felt loved and comforted. Thank you for that. <br><br>Please keep in mind that I’m still a 23 year old man dealing with this. So I’m not the best at communicating and figuring this all out. But I want to thank everyone again. <br><br>And thank you to the people who don’t like what I do with her things, that is okay. I understand. I’m just going to do what she wants and make her happy. I’m not going to lock her stuff down, and keep it away from her. I’m not going to stop her from touching it, interacting with it, or getting rid of it. I’m just going to support her and make this process as easy as I can. I understand that materialism is a large focus of this sub. But I just want her to be happy. And I’ll make sure she is.<br><br>Again, I am very grateful for the kindness here. I have never felt so much love and support from strangers. It is amazing. I am very happy for the chambers community.
