Hi I am Sigrid, my husband was diagnosed with advanced cancer in 3 areas early this year after mid last year having his operation to
try and remove his kidney cancer. It has been a tough 7 months with such a short life prognosis. All the treatments are just to given
time and reduce tumour growths. He’s been lucky and only been into hospital 3 times but the admissions are getting closer now.
our kids are finding it difficult young adults themselves. I can see the changes happening & hard to see the one you love not be able
to do the more simple things as easy as before. I just wondered how any of you found support & have managed as their loved ones
cancer has progressed. We have wonderful family and friends, I know there will be a point when outside support will be needed and
I am not looking forward to that day. Take care everyone and thanks for you support
hi both,
While we would all love to think we can protect ourselves and those we love things do not work like that. I was at a friends funeral recently and the celebrant said pain is the price we pay for love.
It really does help to be able to talk and sometimes finding the right person to talk to is important. One of the wonders on here is we are all in a similar situation. Quite often a cancer diagnosis can make people feel really lonely.
<<hugs>>
Steve
