My husband had lung cancer 3 years ago and although he had part of his lung removed and was given the all clear.. he has now been diagnosed with lymph node cancer and just started immunotherapy treatment... at the moment I want to support him but I feel so lost and overwhelmed with it all.. I'm still working part time but my stress levels are very high and its triggering off my own health issues.. how do you find a balance between support and your own needs?

I love my husband dearly but sometimes I feel regret for the life we had and the life we have now and that doesn't help the stress either.. I don't have a support system as such only my daughter who moved back home last year my son has autism and that's stress on another level.

How does anyone cope with that and still stay relatively sane?
