My husband has colon cancer, it's been found in the early stages....we have a young family, our youngest two are 9 andc10...we are 51 and 53....

      I don't feel like I'm supporting him well enough, he's a big character,  and has turned to drink as he's scared....he keeps having out bursts of tears and strong emotions, which of course is understandable...he's recently had an mri scan, and we hear tomorrow,  what the plan is...

       I just want to carry on as normal especially in front of the kids, until we know the outcome of that....but I'm really struggling to hold it together...I need to be strong for him and the kids, and I'm terrified of the future...I'm kind of shutting him out, just when he needs me most...I really don't know what to do or feel...any advice would be so very welcome, as I've no one to talk to about all this...thank you!
