Halfway through chemo

Less than one minute read time.

Partner is very poorly.  He may be transferred to HDU.  He is very frightened that the side effects are a sign that he is going to die.  He is extremely tired, may have an infection (or it could be 'acute inflammatory response'), is unable to eat.  It is awful to see him like this, I am scared too. 

I phoned his nurse and she was reassuring but has suggested that I get our sons in to see him.  I feel very anxious but I am trying to organise it, it may help his morale a bit. 

I am trying to stay calm but am finding the pressure of doing so very hard as I am scared for him.

    Hi Carer,

    Sounds,like things are not too good for your husband. I dont believe in building up peoples hopes I also dont believe in knocking them back.

    If your Husband has been moved to a HDU its not good news,and your sons being asked to go and see him thats not good either. I hope that I wrong

    and its just a precaution.All the best to you and your Family.

    Take care and be safe Sarsfield.xxx
