After finding out that my husbands lung cancer has spread to his bones we are back to the waiting game. He had hip biopsy a week ago and we are waiting to hear if anything else can be done to prolong life. I can’t think straight and it’s really hard to stay positive. His mental health has taken a bashing and every day that goes by he gets worse. I can’t do anything to help him and it’s crushing me. I thought maybe putting it into words might help but god, I am so scared that I am going to lose him sooner rather than later. I feel so down. Finding it so hard to pick myself up but know I have to stay strong for him
Lost it in work today. People were very understanding though Always try to stay strong but not this morning
