Good evening everyone im New here
Hi @Nolan7,
Welcome to the community although I'm sorry you have to be here.
Coping emotionally is often the hardest past of cancer, the practicalities tend to become quite evident and just need to be dealt with although they are not always easy and can also carry an emotional burden.
There is a carers group that you might like to consider joining as there will be others there in a similar position to yourself, if you click here it will take you directly to the group. There is also a Family and Friends group (click here) which you might want to consider.
You might also want to consider ringing the Macmillan helpline as they are excellent and will be really aware of what you are going through. They can advise you of ways to help you cope, where you can go for support and also advise re any practical considerations. It is worth asking to speak to a financial advisor to see if there is anything you and your wife can do to help with your finances and practicalities.
I look forward to talking to you again in the future.
Wishing all the best to you and your wife,
Gragon x
