Hi I was wondering if there is anyone here who has anxiety from something related to cancer? I am a cancer caregiver and find myself walking up in the middle of the night, totally scared and shaky and anxious.

Actually Darryl I have a uncle and a grandma both when through Cancer. My grandma breast and my uncle pancreatic cancer. He was one of the most calm men I ever met like laid back relaxed you name it but when cancer came in not only was he constantly anxious but his wife (my aunt) was so anxious too. She lost so much weight constantly sick from worrying like sick sick and just couldn't ever sleep always tossing and turning for the unknown of what may of may not happen to her husband. My grandma on the otherhand was a little bit better about it but it took a toll on her kids more and they are worriers but just I saw more tension in the family and felt it too.
