I have had prostate cancer that has spread to my bones & spine I have been with my partner for around 7 years now again this is around the 5 time now we gave got back together we have been together around 28 to 30 years but only 7 year this time & I have had enough now we have not been close with each other for around 3 years now & iam ready to get myself a one bedroom flat or bungalow as it is getting me down now living with her I know that she no longer cares about me like she used to I go to all my hospital appointments myself she has not been to one for over 3 years now so iam hoping that I can get some help getting a flat or bungalow i know if I stay here much longer my health will get worse as my best mate says that she is making me more ill I dont get a day off even if iam really poorly I still have to clean & hoover & I miss being able to lay in bed & rest for the day so my mate really wants me to move out as soon as possible i have stayed & tryed to work things out but it is just not working anymore & iam getting really depressed & I feel iam giving up the fight & sometime i hate waking up in the morning so it is time to get my own place & get into a better place in my life I just hope that I can get the help as fast as I can to get a flat or bungalow & move on with my life that is all I have to say at this time thank you 

  • Hi Andyace67, sorry to read about both your cancer situation and home situation. Are you hormone therapy just now? I think you need to speak to someone at Maggie’s or MacMillan to help you see a way forward. You can phone them in the first instance. MacMillan specialist nurses are available on 0808 808 0000 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
