I had my trratment during lockdown for brest cancer and felt so on my own. Then back in october last year after going back and forth to my doctor was diagnosed witb terminal cancer at it had spead to the brain liver bones everywhere really. I started treament again which has stopped my cancer for now.  But now my partner has been diagnosed with brain tumors, lung, and kidney cancer which is terminal. Im sttuggling to care for him and deal with everything else on top. I fully understand what he is hoing through but All he does is snap at me he has stopped talking and i sense everything i say or do irritates him. I really dont know what to do as i cant do right for wrong is any one else in this.position please give me some advice. 

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community, and it sounds like you're going through an incredibly tough time at the moment dealing with your own cancer as well as caring for your husband.

    The online community is divided into different support groups so I'm going to recommend a few for you to join. The first is the secondary breast cancer groupas you'll then connect directly with others who have the same type of cancer as you, and the second is the living with incurable cancer group where you can discuss your feelings around your terminal diagnosis openly.

    I'm not sure from your post which of your husband's cancers are the primary and which are secondary so I'll list all the relevant groups here and you can join whichever are appropriate.

    Brain cancer group

    Lung cancer group

    Kidney cancer group

    Secondary brain cancer group

    Secondary lung cancer

    And the final group I'm going to recommend to you is the supporting someone with incurable cancer group where you can get support from others who are also looking after someone with cancer and who may be experiencing the same things as you.

    To join any or all of these groups, just click on the links I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
