Partner diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer

LHi this is my first post on here, my partner who is only 50 was diagnosed 2 weeks ago in A & E we had called an ambulance as he had been ill on and off since November. We thought he had hiatus hernia or something so this came as such a shock. They let him come home 2 days later to build his strength up and put on some of the weight he had lost to get him ready for chemo. After a few days he couldn't even swallow water, hes been back in hospital over a week and hes just fading away in front of my eyes. Hes the youngest person on his ward and hes the sickest. Hes had to have a feeding tube put in hot he just look thinner every day. It's so upsetting I cant stop crying my lovely gorgeous man is just so so ill. Hes so weak and says hes craving something simple like a cold glass of water and he cant even have that. Hes suffered so much this last week and I just dont know if anyone else has been through this and their loved one got even a little bit better

  • Hi

    After a 2 month battle in which he suffered every step of the way we were given news on thursday that my darling man has only 2 weeks to live. The cancer has spread to his liver and they have said they are not going to treat him no more. He was so desperate to live , so even though he was so weak and I'll he put himself through 2 rounds if chemo but it was all for nothing. He's suffered so much, he cant even have a nice meal or drink before he dies because he still cant swallow. I'm heartbroken, hes got 2 weeks to live but cant even do one thing he enjoys before he goes because hes too weak and sick. Hes skin on bone and constantly coughing up blood. This is such a cruel disease and hes dying a horrible death. I feel numb, almost zombie like.....I'm so scared of watching him die. This time 2 months ago he was still at work and now hes going to die. I dont know how to get through this
