Hi all
My wife of 15yrs has, been diagnosed with breast cancer, had a lumpectomy and lymph nodes removed. 6wks ago. But since then I've been Trying to be there for her but she is pushing me away so hard. And totally cutting me out. It's like an emotional tap has been turned off for us. Initially she was going out all the time after diagnosis which I put down to denial fight/flight mode but we have 2 boys 16 and 14 and we never knew when she was going to get. So I had to say something. And then all this started , and were currently in separate rooms and she says were separated.She starts chemo in 3 weeks and I REALLY want to help but she is turning Everything I say in to something negative! ...she is now taking about moving in with her friend for 4 months to recover from the chemo!! It's gonna totally confuse the boys! This wasn't even option afew weeks ago. I talky doing know what to do, I'm in pieces, and really confused at what she's thinking! ... also she has been diagnosed with manic depression!!!
Thanks
Hi
Thanks for your reply,that's another thing she doesn't have any close family support, has nothing to do with her mother and her dad lives far away so since she was 15 she has done everything on her own.she not at taking how she feels. Im at a total loss. Just gota to take everyday as it comes. And because things are strange with us I don't feel i can even give her a hug when she gets down. I'm hoping things change when the chemo starts and she maybe excepts things abit more
