Regrets

I guess many of us have regrets as our lives draw to an end - as well as all the good memories. For me I regret my lack of honesty with my wife about my sexuality. I have a spanking fetish involving men only. It lives in my head (I’m not into pain!) but I do like the power exchange aspects. I have discussed this with my wife who I love very much, but have not been fully transparent with her. This is partly to save my own embarrassment and preserve the little self esteem I have, but mostly to protect her from pain. 

I don’t particularly want advice but I’d be interested to hear from anyone who can empathise, or hear about others’ regrets so that I can offer support. I’m 62, white, English and have a terminal brain cancer diagnosis. 

  • Lung no changed and the small lesion remained the same. So unlikely to be a cancer.

    Will be starting immunotherapy last week of Feb. There are like with any cancer treatments can cause side affects and some can become permanent. But can manage those if they happen. So not really bothered about them and to many to list, but its worth the risk and the benefits of reducing the cancer growing somewhere else.

    So as its stands today...I am cancer free in remission! but high risk the cancer could return which would be incurable ( But not worth thinking about) as I am alive and have treatment plan to hopefully prevent this in the future.

    So I am over the moon Crescent moon and happy with the appointment today....I am on cloud 9 and above...xxxx

  • I’m so happy for you. My brother in law is on immunotherapy atm and other than some issues with the rate of infusion giving him cramps (resolved by slowing it down) he’s been side effect free. I know that immunotherapy is not ‘just one thing’ but I hope that this shows that life can be normal on immunotherapy. 

    good luck - and stay in touch xx

  • Thank you. It's like any medication some get side affects orders get nothing at all. I am hoping he is keeping well otherwise. I am keeping in touch if you like. I am not planning on leaving the group yet. Plus need to check on you too haha xx
