Hi - found out yesterday my husband has cancer. Dont know much yet as he has to have more tests but he has 2 tumours in his abdomen. I am a very strong person but this has knocked me sidewise. Just need to get used to it i guess and then work out how to beat it. thanks for listening
Hi hermes
Welcome to the community and sorry to hear about your husband. I hope you find the community as useful as I have though I guess it will get clearer once you get some more information - though it does often feel a little like time starts to stand still.
I remember the "being strong bit" - now I regard tears as love overflowing and leaking out of my eyes.
<<hugs>>
