Grumpy parter. Can’t handle it

Hi kazlar26, welcome to the group, but sorry you find yourself here.

Sorry you don’t feel like you are getting support from your partner. Sometimes loved ones just don’t know how to react when someone close to them is diagnosed with cancer. You have definitely come to the right place yourself, to have a rant and let off some steam. This is a very supportive group, and there is no judgement here. 

Does your partner have any support himself? Do you think counselling may help him? His GP can help with this, or you can contact your local Macmillan centre or Maggie’s if you have one? 

You can also contact the support line on 0808 808 00 00. They are available 7 days a week from 8am until 8pm. 

I hope you find the group helpful, there is normally someone here to chat with x 

Hi Kaslar26, I can not imagine what you feel when you have your shock, of being told  this news,  yet your partner acts in this way, people have different reactions though, this sounds like your partner is more in shock than you, it is a mix of very complex emotions to yourself and your partner, hopefully he can come to terms with being compassionate to you, once he has had time to contemplate.

I do wish you all the best, as this journey is not easy in its self, and hopefully your partner can accept this is going to be the case.

My thoughts are with you at this difficult time.
