  • Hi Flegtak,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm so sorry to hear of the situation with your husband - I am sure this must be incredibly difficult and of course made worse by the restrictions on visiting the hospital.

    It sounds like you're still waiting to hear more about what's going on. I hope that it's not long to wait before you have the information you need, and then hopefully a plan to follow. Once you have this, it may help a little in terms of reducing uncertainty and knowing what steps are next.

    Do what you can to support your husband, while also taking care of yourself too. This forum is always here if you need it, and it can be an outlet to write things down or to reach out to others in similar situations.

    If at any point you feel you need additional support, have a look at Macmillan and Maggie's, who both offer various resources, helplines, and more.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ben
