I am so scared of the future (Sun 23 Jan 2010)

Less than one minute read time.

I am so scared of the future.  My husband David was diagnosed lat April/May that he has lung cancer (2 tumours) and in his lymph nodes.  Prognosis was less than 6 months and 9 months later we are still here.

Last night (Sat 22 Jan 2010) David had a mini stroke.  He was judged by the ambulance crew to be ok and he was allowed to stay home.

today he is very lethargic and extremely tired.  i watch his every move and ask him all the time "are you ok?"

Now I scared that we don;t have very long left.

    pageantqueen...my heart goes out to you.  Watching the one you love suffer when you can't do anything to help is hard.  I will tell you that the doctors don't always know how long someone will survive...my husband was told that he would likely live six to eight months and he lived 8 years! Just try to let your husband know you love him every day and let the future take care of itself. ((((HUGS))))
