Strength

Hi and welcome to the club everyone wishes they didn't have to belong to. What a shock for you. I understand you worrying about 'totally breaking down'. I'm very emotional and went into meltdown when my husband was diagnosed with 3 cancers in two years. I have found this community to be a great source of comfort and hope that you will too. It's so much more difficult during lockdown without the support groups. Do you have family to Skype or meet locally?

Love and hugs,

Thank you LoobyLou49 

I am very lucky to have an amazing son who lives at home. He is 24 and is an enormous help. I do worry what this is doing to him though.

i am in regular contact with family, but I don’t want to off load on them , I don’t want them thinking I can’t look after my husband or don’t want to. 

we have had a better day today and I am thankful to spend as much time as we have together. 
I have no idea what I am going to do next week when I have to go back to work! 

Hi , back to work, oh my. Do call the helpline if you need to on 0808 808 0000. My typing seems to be coming out in bold. I hope it doesn't post like that. Let me know how you get on.

Hugs,
