Hi and welcome to the Online Community, although I am sorry to see you finding us and so sorry to hear about your partners diagnosis, this will have come as a shock and is such a hard time.
A terminal cancer diagnosis can indeed bring a lot of stress, confusion and many questions on all the family but talking with people who are on the same journey can help a lot.
You do need to talk with your GP or Hospital team as they can connect you in with any palliative and support care that is available in your area.
Can I first direct you to this link to our very supportive Supporting Someone with Incurable Cancer group. This is a good places where you can connect with others supporting family through their cancer journey but more importantly the carers care for each other.
To join just click on the link I've created and then choose 'join this group' on the page that opens. You can then introduce yourself and post questions after selecting 'start a discussion' and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
Can I also highly recommend our various Macmillan Support Line Services - you can call them free on 0808 808 00 00 This service covers Emotional Support, Practical Information. Clinical Information, Financial Support and Work Guidance mostly open 8.00 to 8.00 but check the link.
We also have our ‘Ask an Expert’. section where you can post questions to our mostly Volunteer Experts but please allow 2 working days to get a reply.
Talking to people face to face can help a lot so check to see if you have any Local Macmillan Support in your area or a Maggie’s Centre as these folks are amazing.
You may want to put some information in your profile can help a lot Click here to see how to add details as this helps everyone to see a little about you
All the very best.
