My husband Darren was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer whilst working abroad. We now have most of our appointments through, another colonoscopy, cat scan and an added MRI of his liver. after this is all done we will see the consultants.
Darren's Gastro/cancer specialist rang last night to see how he was coping with his symptoms and talking through his upcoming tests. it was nice to hear from his consultant, however it all makes it so real now, we sort of been living in a bubble, trying to forget the fact that my husband has a life limiting illness!
Feel utterly scared and a bit down in the dumps today.
Another thing I have noticed that some people who know of his diagnosis really do not know what to say. they seem to try and talk to us as quickly as possible to escape as soon as possible. this is really annoying, nothing has changed despite Darren being ill. i Really cant be bothered today at all!
