Good to find this carers group and read some of your refreshingly honest posts. I'm in Portugal, and my husband has just started chemo for third time...in past three years, throat cancer was cured, came back in his lungs, through chemo tumours shrunk, so he was put on immunotherapy, but this didn't work, and he now has it in his bones. We don't know the prognosis, we haven't asked as we don't find it helps, but obviously things not looking great!!! My husband is very stoic and quite positive, and I try to be, but he doesn't want to talk, and I find it quite frustrating!!! We don't have many friends here, and I don't want to be ringing friends in UK with 'bad news', and I just get quite lonely sometimes!!!!
