Hi , I have read so many similar personal journey's and have realised I am not the only one feeling this way . My husband of 27yrs just turned 54 and after 9 years of fighting , is now at home receiving EOL care . He has not eaten for 5 days and sleeps most of the time. I am broken xx

Words are limited in response to your post... I am so very sorry to read that after 9 years the battle has brought you both to accepting EOL care.
I don't know anymore than you have shared above, but I can't begin to imagine where you are within yourself . The time you have shared together is priceless and I hope that you are able to remain as strong as possible.
I want to reach out to you, yet I know, with what is taking place and you feeling so broken, the reaching you will be harder, but please know, there are people here for you always.
