Today, I found out after spending my life's income on paying for my grandma's cancer treatment that she has been faking it. FML

How did she even fake it? And where did your money actually go?

I'm pretty sure you can't fake cancer. You weren't just giving her all your money were you? Although if my grandma told me she had cancer I would. You're a good person

Good, yes. But stupid to not ask to see invoices for the payments from the hospital and to go with her. If I was paying for it, I'd be in contact with her doctor.

Does Gramma have a gambling addiction? Maybe that's where the money went. Sorry OP!

Little far out there to believe without more backstory. Hard to believe,

Tell her to tell Satan "Hi" for you when she goes to Hell.

Can you sue her? That's a whole new low of ****** up.

Just give her some cigarettes in return.

It's free money to her...I'd take it also...but seemingly I assume things worked out before just stop sending...then you'll have some extra cash for a leisure or something...

some extra cash for a leisure? OP spent their life savings on a fake illness. you are one twisted individual if you say you'd take the money as well.

As someone who's mother has gone through cancer twice, I find what your grandma did to be very offensive. Although I am curious as to how you could spend your income on a hospital bill that didn't exist? And I don't mean, "how could you be tricked into that" I mean, literally, how is that possible since they presumably wouldn't have an actual bill on your grandmother to be paid off.

I'd say the grandma just said how much she "needed" and op wrote a check.
