Back on the battlefield

Less than one minute read time.

My father (who is in my photo box) passed away from cancer in May 2009 my good friend died of cancer four months later, my Aunty died August 2015 and so I thought I had, had my fair share of pain, to see my loved ones suffer that wretched disease was more than I could bare.....but I am back on that battlefield, my partner and soulmate age 52 years, has primary liver cancer which has metestatsised to many areas in his body.......I am broken, I am heart broken. Never have I felt helplessness like I do now....and I am in a country whose language is hard to understand.........so the challange begins. All I know is that liver cancer is really bad news, survival is rare and the suffering is painful.

I am using this blog not only to vent but to share our journey.

    I am so sorry to hear about both your past history and your present situation. You must be heartbroken. My husband lost both his brother and sister to cancer, last year I had a big operation because of cancer and his mum is also suffering from it. It certainly doesn't discriminate does it. When I got my diagnosis I felt so sorry for my husband. He had already been through so much but he has been a tower of strength and always by my side. Your husband will also feel that support from you. Do you have good friends out there or is there a support group that you can attend. It's important that you both have support and someone to turn to besides each other. if not just keep on coming on here as we will all listen and support you at this awful time. Take care. Xx
