[quote=Anonymous]My mom was 50 when she died of cancer. I’m 45 now. The thought of dying when my kids are young is always in the back of my mind but I wouldn’t say I’m afraid or anxious about it. All I can do is take care of myself, go to all of my screenings, eat healthy and exercise. My DH is an awesome dad and I know my brother and aunts would step in to help DH with the kids, as would his mom. I have to trust in the fact that my kids have DH and family who love them. I also write letters for my kids (for when they are older) and I make sure to take lots of pictures of us as a family and me with the kids. Just in case. Even if I’m fortunate to live a long life and see my kids grow up, the letters and pictures are things they will always have. [/quote]
