My husband has stage 4 mesothelioma

My husband had his first chemo a week ago. He doesn't  eat much and sleeps most of the time. He is in his 80's and chemo is hard on him.  I'm in my early 70's but I'm tired most of the time and feel guilty that I get angry at times. What can I do to make hI'm more comfortable and for me to cope better

  • Hi shilocruz,

    Welcome to the forum! You really have come to the right forum as one of our most active members, a lovely lady called jules54 looked after her husband for many years who also had stage 4 mesothelioma. I know she would be the perfect person for you to talk to and that she will understand exactly how you feel and that she can give you some great tips on how to cope and how to support him at the moment.

    You can see Jules54's profile and the discussions she started on the forum. I will also quickly drop her a line and mention your thread. You two will have a lot to say to one another I think!

    Best wishes,
