Hello, I'm new here. Two weeks ago, or was it 3? Seems like forever, my husband was diagnosed with squamous non small cell cancer in the top of his right lung.
I'm devastated. He's 72 and I'm 68. I'm angry too. We're both stopped smoking 6 years ago and I feel angry about it. How do I know when he needs comfort and when he needs to be alone.
Tbh I don't know what I'm asking, I just want to tell the world that my husband has been diagnosed.
Sorry.
Debbie
