I have stage iv colon cancer and I wish to die. I'm so tired of living like this, being a slave to the cancer. I was told by my oncology team I should prepare for the possibility that I'll live the rest of my life in pain, but I don't want this. I'm not sure what I'm looking for by posting this here, maybe I want some vindication for the suffering I'm going through, maybe I want to be told suicide won't send me to hell.

Please, help me.

Pray brother. Pray and keep on praying. Accept God's plan for you with humility and cheerfulness. Tell him you are scared. Cry out for help. Keep your spirits up.

Euthanasia and suicide are not the answer here anon. I cannot possibly imagine how you feel, yet in some way, by virtue of being in the same human condition, I understand why you feel this.

St. Augustine tells us that God allows us to continue suffering because this is beneficial for our salvation. Suffering brings us closer to God. Remember that it was Jesus who took on our pain, who was crucified with it on the cross, and who overcame it through his resurrection. You my friend have been crucified with Christ, your suffering is his suffering. But I tell you my dear and beloved brother, if you continue to follow in the way of God you will live through Christ's resurrection. Born a natural body, raised a spiritual one.

Keep running the race brother, do not give up. Continue praying and studying God's word. Be strong, be very strong. Imitation tell us that this pain is only for a short time, and we must endure the short time of pain so that we may inherit everlasting life where there is no pain and where every tear will be wiped away from our eyes.

Christ loves you. As fellow Christians united by Christ as one body, we love you, I love you. I will pray for you. Stay strong. Amen.

I can't imagine how hard that is to bear. Give yourself completely to God.

Romans 5:1-5

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

I don't have any more answers for you beyond what anyone else here has already stated, but I promise to pray for you nonetheless.

Keep the faith, anon, your suffering is great but God is with you

Read the book of Job. You might see something in there that we didnt understand. May God give you strength.

Seens like the book of Job is just God being indifferent to Job at best

Good luck, anon.

With God, anything is possible. Just don't give up the fight.

>maybe I want some vindication for the suffering I'm going through

Depends on your faithfulness. Maybe you're a heathen being shown you'll die a miserably painful and pointless death, that you should repent of all your sins and call on the Lord right now. Maybe.

>maybe I want to be told suicide won't send me to hell.

Or maybe you're a believer who thought "the life" would be pain free, and are seeking to swallow the blue pill instead.

We don't know. But it would greatly affect our answers to you.

No one who cares about you will tell you that. What we can tell you is to pray and that God's grace will be sufficient.

I'm dealing with something simmilar and I know what it's like to think about the future and not see anything there. The hard truth is that faith is a demand and you can't give in to the devil, you have to stay faithful to the end. We're all one in spirit so we're all praying for you to get through this thing and sharing in what you're going through, so don't give in to the enemy and remember who's name was written on your forehead at baptism. God has your name on the palm of his hand and you might live a life going through suffering for no reason but God's going to bring you out of it, and without God you're not going to find any kind of real and sustaining comfort.

We're all cheering you on, keep remembering the Lord I stumble too but we've gotta soldier on. I'll pray for you. Please pray for me as well.

OP, you are not forgotten. God sees and feels your pain. Our God is a God of healing, Jesus still performs miracles even to this day. One day, we will be in a place where there is no more tears, and no more pain. Fight the good fight. Stay strong brother. We are praying for you.

If you're a catholic, pray the devotion to the sacred heart of Jesus.

"My God, I offer You all my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings in union with the Sacred Heart of Jesus, for the intentions for which He pleads and offers Himself in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in thanksgiving for Your favors, in reparation for my sins, and in humble supplication for my temporal and eternal welfare, for the needs of our holy Mother the Church, for the conversion of sinners, and for the relief of the poor souls in purgatory."
