Twin with cancer

Hi PS67 I am sorry you are going through this. My partner who is also 58 was also told he only has 3-6 months at the start of January but offered no treatment . He has deteriorated so much over the past few weeks. I feel so sad to see him like this and like you struggling. I do find going for walks helps me and I also wrote him a letter sharing all our memories together. Although very hard it helped me remember all the wonderful times we have had together and I will remember those forever. I also have made a photo album for him. I am crying just typing this so I know how you are feeling. I have read lots of stories on here where people have beat the odds and have had treatment and beat their diagnosis so stay positive and treasure every day. Look after yourself too and be kind to yourself x

Good morning celtic girl.

Thank you for your reply and sorry to hear it's been especially tough lately.

I am still trying to go for walks with our dog. It helps just to get out of the house. I like the idea of a letter. I was thinking about doing it for Valentines Day. It might help me to say some things I might not be vocal about otherwise. Typical man I suppose, keep a lot bottled up.

Unfortunately I don't think her lung cancer will allow her to beat the odds but if we could get two years instead of 12 months that would be something. Quite hard writing this so I will leave it for now. I hope you both have a better few days.

Hi PS67 I replied I am butterfly77. Look after yourself . I hope you are ok x

Sorry Butterfly! My head isn't on straight at the moment. I cannot imagine what you are going through. We do have chemo available which the oncologist says might buy a few months. I will be where you are soon though. I am trying to live for today which is the only advice I've been given. I just don't know how to do it. I hope you are keeping your head above water. Try to make sure you get at least something to eat and a bit of sleep.  I'm struggling with both so should take my own advice but it's so hard.

There is am message bubble thing at the top but nothing in there 

I understand this so much it’s hard to keep going.  My twin is so grumpy and snapping at me constantly.  I hope you get a few months.  I don’t know how to live for today I am broken.

Hi Celtic girl how are you doing?
