My husband has terminal small cell lung cancer thats spread to his bones . Diagnosed just over a yers ago .He was really well up to last week when he developed severe leg and pelvic pain. He rang acute oncology and was admitted as it was found he had dangerously low platelets. He has had transfusions but does not seem to be improving and has now low red blood cells. Yesterday i visited and he was just sleeping amd hadnt eaten. I spoke to the nurse who told me he was waiting another blood transfusion . 
i have asked my husband what doctors have said and he said he doesnt know . He us isolated due to been a CPE carrier and nurses arnt telling me much. I work full time and visit every evening and weekends so I am not at the hospital when doctors do there rounds. 
i am worried my husband is nearing end of life but no one is telling me anything and there has never been any palliative care . 
I am told to take time for myself but how is this possible
