My husband has been diagnosed with this we are currently in a bubble it doesn't feel real. He went intially due to shortness of breath the scan picked up narrowed artery in his heart but also showed a significant tumour in the bottom of his lung which has spread. No symptoms. Waiting for MDT plan. Lots of worries about what's going to happen and me being able to hold down my job at the same time as supporting him. Any advice please
My heart goes out to you.
I lost my partner earlier this year after a Terminal diagnosis. Sit down and talk to your boss. I found the company I work for to be extremely supportive. Also please get in touch with Macmillan. With support you will get through this. I am not saying it will be easy but please do get yourself some support and don't be afraid to open up and talk about your feelings and your worries.
May I wish you the best of luck in this difficult time
