I felt like I needed to come back and give an update. 

I'm a stepson(19) whose stepdad was diagnosed with brain cancer. This really changed the whole atmosphere of the household. My Stepdad is a great man. He makes my mom happy and he's always putting us first. When he was in the hospital, the house didn't feel like a home anymore. It felt like an empty building. I struggled a lot with this. I had to put on a brave face for my mom and my little sisters sake but I was broken inside. There were nights where I would just cry myself to sleep thinking he wasn't going to make it. 

My father remarried and shut me out since. My stepdad never once tried to take his place but he did let me he would always be there for me. I consider my stepdad my dad and I address him as such. 

He had his surgery 3 months ago and they got it all- He is now cancer free. I want to thank you all so much. From my last post, a lot of people commented that I should also take care of myself too. I had isolated myself from everyone. I wasn't sleeping, barley eating, my performance in school was affected also. Thank you for reminding me to take care of myself as well. I almost lost myself. 

Thank you for those who sent there prayers for my family during this very difficult time. 

I consider myself fortunate to have such amazing parents. My mom and stepdad set an example of I want in the future. 

Again thank you all so much. I don't know how to express my gratitude for the support I was given. 

Hope everyone enjoys the holidays with your families. I will be asking my stepdad to adopt me on Christmas. I've already run it by mom and have already discussed with an attorney regarding  legal adult adoptions-I'm in the clear and have the papers ready.
