So this is my first post...
My family is quite young.
I'm 16. My Grandmother isn't even in her 60's yet. I fear that she may not be with us much longer...
My grandparents own a farm. So naturally, they are very hard working people that are constantly operating semi-heavy machinery and completing many laborious chores each day. Well, over the past few weeks Grandmother has been getting really sick. She was mowing the fields and got a chest infection that has lasted much longer than normal. Now, it's hard for her to get up the stairs without needing to sit down for a few minutes.
Out of desperation and fear my grandfather took her to a hospital where she stayed overnight and had many tests done. The doctors have found a black substance the size of a golf ball in one of her lungs.
It might be cancer.
I'm scared.
I don't really show emotion that well and i am coming apart on the inside. Honestly I am afraid to talk to anyone because i have been accused of making a big deal out of many things before. But I don't know what to do.
I have tried to talk to God about it but I don't know what to say. If it is cancer then it's silly to ask that it not be what it is. I don't know what to ask or what to say.
Why would God let my grandmother suffer like this? She doesn't have an evil bone in her body. I don't want my family to have to go through this. It hurts. And I feel helpless.
I don't know what to say.
If anyone has any advice or verses they would like to share, please do. Because I feel like I am failing my grandmother by not being able to do something. I feel broken. I feel like such a horrible person because I can't help her. And I know it sounds ridiculous, but I feel like I am wasting space by not being helpful. I am very close to my grandmother. Can anyone help?
Why would God do this?
