Hello BobbyB

I'm very sorry to hear about your wife's diagnosis and how things have changed between you recently. 

People experience a wide range of emotions when they are dealing with cancer and it's certainly not uncommon for people to feel angry. Often it is the people that they are closest too who are exposed to this. 

I suspect that while your wife may be angry that your future together is going to be cut short, that she is angry about more than that but it may be that she's too afraid to voice those thoughts and feelings. Pushing you away may feel easier for her, and it may even be that she feels that it will make your loss easier as well. 

I'm sure that some of our members here will have experienced similar issues with their loved ones and I hope that they will post to share their support. 

I don't know if you think it would help to talk to one of our nurses about your situation. I'm sure that they would be able to offer some support. You can call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

Keep posting here if you would like to Bobby. Sometimes it can help to write things down and we will do our best to support you through these difficult times. 

Best wishes, 
Jenn
