Are cancers emotional?

So I've been creeping on the cancer forum for some time and reading up on things of a cancer nature and there seems to be a consensus that most of not all cancers are emotional but my mom who is a cancer born July 14 1971 is stingy with how she feels. For instance she once told her boyfriend who happened to be married at the time about her money problems and cry about it but she would never tell us or let us in. We always have secondhand knowledge of the stress and strife she goes through. And if I'm to be honest it hurts me and my two sisters and brother, we feel or attempt I do that she doesn't trust us and we want to reach out but don't know how. One of the things she taught us to do is to sit and simmer until we boil over... And the most biting thing of all is we have never really had a taste of that good ole cancer mommy love.

What do you consider emotional? If it's boohoo crying every two minutes then naw.

When it comes to your mom I believe she doesn't want to burden her kids with her financial troubles. Parents tend to want to appear like a superhero to their kids. It's probably easier for her to cry to an ex about things instead of bringing her stress to ya'll.

I don't know every detail of your life but from what you've stated above it seems more like it's a pride thing rather than her not trusting you or your siblings.

I'd say leave it alone.. if you want to help her then take her on a spa date, buy her groceries or leave some money under her pillow when she's not looking.. Take it slow. Show her ya'll can help out in little ways first..

Thank you guys this is very helpful and my father doesn't live with us he is in a care facility for mental illness.
