A little worry is natural but a lot of worry can be unhealthy for you. Just keep a smile on your face and surround yourself with laughing friends and people who care about you. good luck sweetie and i will be praying for you and your family

Hi, last year in September I was faced with a similar situaltion, when my dads best friend, who played a major part in my life and had almost become pat of our family, died due to secondary bone cancer, for the first few months I could not stop thinking about her. I had know her since the day I was born. She was not only my dads best friend but she was mine to. She a never missed giving me a birthday and Christmas gifts. She even became close friends with my dads entire side of the family. But enough about her. When she died I felt so down becuase she tauaght at the school I attended so I saw her everyday. So I focused on when she wasn't sick and all the good times me, her and my family had, this made me feel a shit load better inside. So once I felt better inside I started to interact with my friends again and started to focus on class again, this really made me not forget but take my mind off off the hole thing. After a few months I was happy and able to talk about it easily, I still get sad from time to time, like when I visit her grave and drive past her house but you get used to it. I am 15 so if you need any more help just ask.

I have a younger brother, who is sick with an auto- ammune disease. I know how you feel, and it isn't healthy to worry so much. what you need to do is reassure yourself and your brother that you do care, Im sure he can tell by the way you worry. Make sure to go out with friends, have sleepovers, do random things to take your mind off it, but always check in. Smile more you'll feel better. And if you bring your brother something to do, or something to put a smile on his face, im sure you will feel better about it. good luck, and i hope your brother feels better.

my sister is really sick to with some stomach thing. shes in and out of the hospital. when shes in and i need to take my mind of her i clean the whole house color her favorite pictures no matter how babyish it seems and i make her c.ds of her favorite songs. It helps mehave something to do rather then sitting around thinking what could go wrong. Seeing how your brother is older i sugessst making c.ds and bringing him things that he likes. and keeping yourself busy. it really helps when you have nothing to do but sit there your mind tends to wonder to unsafe thoughts. GOOD LUCK!!!!
