My Dad is 64 (I’m 15, turning 16) and he has incurable cancer.

To add onto the title, he is probably gonna die sooner than later, and my Mom doesn’t have a job and won’t get one so we will be homeless.

I want to get a job and move out ASAP so I don’t have to deal with being homeless when he dies (and other reasons), but I’m also in recovery for anorexia and my treatment team won’t let me get a job until I’m medically stable.

My last option if all else fails is to run away from home.

Is there ANYTHING I can do to make this situation easier?

Running away

I’m a 15f (I’m turning 16 in Dec). My Dad has an incurable cancer (he’s also 64). My mother is emotionally abusive, and she doesn’t have a job. If and when my Dad dies, I will be homeless with my Mom who will get tipped over the edge and go crazy. My siblings are all moved out, and no, I’m not going to live with them. I’m also in recovery for anorexia, and I want to get away from my treatment team who I have to see every week and is saying if I lose ANY weight or I start slipping, I’m going back to the hospital/to residential.

My Mom won’t let me get a job to support myself, I can’t stand to watch my Dad die, and I can’t do this treatment anymore.

I want to run away from home. Any tips?? And no, you can’t talk me out of this.
