My husband was taken ill towards the end of September. He had a “funny head” for about 5 days. To cut a story short he went to hospital with a suspected mini stroke, but was found to have a mass in his head. It has progressed so quickly, he hasn’t been able to have radiotherapy as he has become bed bound and is unable to do anything for himself.
i love him so much, life changed overnight. We had normal life in September, now life has changed completely. I feel lost, helpless, to know I’m losing him.
Hi GailyS, I'm so sorry to hear about your husband. My own husband was diagnosed with a glioblastoma in early Sept so I can empathise with how quickly your "normal" life disappeared. Feeling lost, helpless, useless etc is all perfectly normal - or so folk tell me - but know that you are not alone here. This forum has provided a lot of support to me over the last few weeks since I reached out.
Hang in there.
Big hugs
Wee Me xx
