By the Sunday, he was still in incredible pain and the painkillers they were giving him were not even touching it. An emergency pain doctor (I think that's what he was called) was brought in to see him and asked him what the result of the CT scan was. As it had only been done on the Friday, we had not been told. The doctor went away, came back 5 minutes later with a nurse and shut the door. I was still unaware, even with that, that there was something wrong. What he then told us has changed our lives forever. He suspected, my partner had lung cancer and that it had possibly spread to other areas. The next day it was confirmed that he did indeed have lung cancer and secondary cancers in the adrenal glands, liver and bones. It is inoperable and as yet no prognosis, yet he has vowed to double any time the doctors tell him. Right now, as I right I can't help the water flowing from my eyes. We have only had 3 years and had promised each other the next 40 years. Our dreams and plans for a busy happy future were all in place.
