Help please

Hi Chris, im sorry to read about your sons relapse. Its so hard when we learn that nothing can be done and they are facing limited time.

You dont have to be strong, you are going through this as a family so you are inevitablly supporting each other. Its Ok to be upset, hurt, etc. 

Do you talk as a family? If not, is there someone close that you can talk to, a friend, the hospice team if there is one, and the same for your wife. What ages are your other children, Im sure there are charities that support children. Im sure others would know.

If you dont have hospice help yet, is there one nearby? They can be a godsend in sipporting the whole family, not just the person who is sick.

Your help is through being there, talking, togetherness as much as that is possible and finding ways to enjoy the time you have left with your son. Are there things he wants to do? Ways to make memories,?

Do talk here if it helps, and there is the Macmillan helpline as well.

Hugs to you and your family.
