Hello everyone,
I am really concerned for a friend for has been diagnosed with terminal Bone Cancer. She has been given a few months. The odd thing is, and I feel awful for saying it, but she seems to be enjoying it!!
She pestered to get Morphine from her doctor, which she got and brags about having it. She bosses her poor husband about and making out she cant do simple tasks because she has cancer. It is totally bizarre! She summons people to come and see her and make us do things she is quite capable of doing herself. Is this a common reaction?
I am worried her husband will have a break down! I seem to be the one he leans on and I'm finding it very stressful.
Though I hate to admit it, but if she was told there had been an error and she didnt have cancer at all, she would truly be disappointed! I know that sounds dreadful but it is how things are and I just cant get my head around it!
I'm at a total loss as to what I can do.
Hi @noodlynoo,
Sorry to read about what you are going through, it does sound very difficult. Some of the things you talk about I have heard similar before and even worse but having never been in a situation similar to yours it is hard to think of what your next step might be.
Perhaps I can recommend you speak to one of the staff on our phoneline 0808 808 0000 they might be able to help you decide what you want to do.
<<hugs>>
