i just feel sad and "why us" today need a group hug from everyone else who feels the same

I’m sure everyone in this forum would give you a hug if they could.

Physical contact from someone who cares can certainly lift one’s spirit.

Have you considered complementary therapies such as Reiki and Reflexology? Anything that will relax you, your husband or your family? Cancer affects the whole family not just the patient and a pamper session can do wonders for relieving stress. 

In my last consultation the adverse effect stress has on cancer was emphasised to me so I have become very mindful of this myself. 

Every best wish x

Mine is still in hospital 7 weeks after Ivor Lewis surgery. It's been brutal. He has night terrors and confusion, they tell me he doesn't have a delirium, but he is confused a lot of the time. He's had surgery after surgery, stent after stent, chains drains galore, pneumonia x2 on and on.

It feels never ending.

Here's a hug right back at you from someone else clawing their way through this horrible minefield. Xxx

hugs to you too thank you for the hug.

it is so unfair a club we did not apply for but here we are united in our strength but fighting the feelings of desparation to feel positive

with much love

Stay strong xx

Sending you a hug. Chest drains are brutal. My husband had the op in June x

A big hug from me who is to undergo surgery next Tuesday 23rd September.

Sorry to read this. My husband had surgery last year and is on immunotherapy. He has his next scan on Friday, and surgery to remove suspected skin cancer from his neck a week on Monday. My husband has lost a lot of weight, and I have noticed minor confusion and errors that he wouldn't normally make. Big virtual hug to you.
