My husband has just been diagnosed with bowel cancer op in next couple days.
I am still recovering from full hysterectomy due to uterine cancer (9 weeks ago)
My head is all over the place not sure who to talk to.
Hi Peanut
Welcome to our community, I hope you find it both informative and supportive.
Sorry to hear about your husband, there is quite a lot of information on bowel cancer here. My wife had an emgency hysterectomy though in her case the wound opened up afterwards so we had something of a challenge there - that was even before her cancer diagnosis though it seems hghly likely her cancer started when a fibroid became cancerous.
Something I found quite helpful was looking at your feelings when someone has cancer quite helpful as being able to recognize the emotions and accept them as part of the new normal can help make them less overwhelming.
We are lucky to have a Maggies at our local hospital as they offer a simple drop in service. Of course you are also welcome to ring our helpline 0800 808 0000 anytime between 8am to 8pm 7 days a week. We also have a tool in your area that give a postcode can find some support near to you.
<<hugs>>
