Life was good I had met Joyce ( name changed ) in May 2014 like me she had lost her partner to cancer so we understood each other and life challenges. We travelled we loved we were in real tune , yet as my diagnosis evolved the playing field changed . Joyce began to become less close didn't see as much of me and I sensed her feelings wane . She didn't tell her two so sons of my plight ; my guess being that they would discourage contact to protect their mothers wellbeing which I understand . In fact I had never met one son due to the legacy of his late father ( he passed away 10 years ago )
So last Wednesday Joyce ended our 3 year relationship she had said in weeks. Earlier she would support me through this as best she could and could never live with the guilt of deserting me .
Yet she did just that ; how can anyone in an hour of need do this to another ; I am deeply deeply hurt it seems as soon as Cancer was mentioned then all bets were off . Ronnie 67 years West Sussex
