Hi Ragbags, 

My Wife was diagnosed with grade 4 (Glioma) brain cancer almost 18 months ago. After surgery and chemo/radio that ended December 2020 she is now living with three monthly MRIs. Whislt her health is stable, shes not the same person. The condition is incurable so the future is a complete unknown.

Like your partner, my Wife can often be very obtuse, angry and hurtfull. Its because she is consious of her own mortality, this frightens her. I'm taken on the role of carer, its tough.

Be strong you are not alone. Ask for help from the specalist nurse team.

Above all never give up. You need each other.

Firstly let me say how sorry I am to hear the struggle you are both facing it's so hard & as you say the position of carer is almost no win . I only hope that by giving him a bit of space he has time to process & realise that yes I'm tired but I need him too & thank you .
