Would love to find someone in a similar situation to talk to. My husband was given 3 to 6 months in March and the last couple of weeks he has started to decline. Mega mix of emotions, how do others cope?

Hello LauraG,
I'm really sorry to hear about your husband's situation but I'm glad you've joined as you'll find many members here in the same situation with their partners and loved ones and hopefully some of them will reply soon to offer their support and advice.
I have included some information for you to have a look at about what to expect when the time draws near which I hope will help at this time but it can be quite a tough read so only go through it when you feel you are ready to do so.
Post as much as you need to and remember that we are here to help and support you every step of the way.
Kind regards,
Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
Hi Laura,
I hope someone with recent experience is able to answer you and chat soon. When my Mum was deteriorating and moving into end of life care, we just seemed to plod along taking it one day at a time. I think the human mind blocks a lot of things out and just allows through as much as you can cope with without shutting down and ceasing to function.
Best wishes
Dave
