Hi yesterday we had the devastating news my partner has incurable brain tumour and likely weeks poss months. This has done as such a shock- he was working up to two weeks ago when I took him to hospital with stroke symptoms. I just don’t know if w how to cope. We’ve agreed for him to come home and see how it goes. I feel I’m grieving but haven’t yet lost him. Not sure what’s the hardest. I hoped to wake up to a cal he haas passed, is that awful? How do I keep going and not upset him. How do I sort funeral arrangements, we’ve never discussed this nor a will. He runs his own business etc. we are not married but had a good life together, doing up a house, plans for future. I am so devastated and missing him. It’s so unfair, he’s fit and healthy at 68 and still working.
