Scared about how I will cope without him

So frightened about how I will cope without him…..even tho I have lots of friends and interests. Nothing makes sense.

  • Welcome to Cancer Chat, Colourful.

    I’m sorry to hear about the emotions you’re going through.

    Feeling frightened about managing life without him is entirely natural. What you’re experiencing, that sense of emptiness where nothing seems to make sense, is exactly why so many others come here to share, and why reaching out can really help.

    Hopefully others who have been in a similar situation will come along shortly to chat with you. 

    You’re most welcome to use this space whenever you need – whether it’s to share a memory, a worry, or just how you are today. There is no pressure and no right or wrong way to do this. We’re here for you.

    Best wishes,
    Renata, Cancer Chat Moderator

  • Me too.  My dad has pancreatic cancer and has been told there are no further treatment options left.  Whilst I know he is of an age where it is not unusual to lose a parent it scares me as I have already lost my mum xxx

  • Thinking of you Corno72 and sharing your pain.  Thank you too, Renata.

  • My wife has terminal cancer I to feel like you I don’t know how I will survive without her she’s so strong fighting this awful disease but she’s only worried for me being left with our two dogs i have these panic attacks mostly whist in bed during the early hours can’t sleep scared for the future without her
