Thank you for your kind response, I hope you make a full recovery, my partner is a quiet man and doesn't like a fuss and tends to keeps things to himself, I just want to be there for him as much as I can without being ott as he says, lol, I know we have a long road ahead but I want to prepare as much as I can, keep in touch with your progress and I hope Covid goes away so you can enjoy your hot tub and your loved ones around you x

my partner is 50 in a few weeks, I am only 37, our kids our 19,18,13,12,9,10

my partner started taking dizzy spells  a few years ago but last year it got worst, he went t to see his gp and we where on the list for MRI but due to Covid the waiting list is huge, the dizzy spells got more frequent and then last week he started coughing up blood which we both freaked out and he was admitted to hospital for 3 days and we where told he has 80% cancer on his lymph notes which has spread to the back off his brain, this was a huge shock to both off us, all I've done is cry and I need to be strong for him and the children, he was in great health but lately he's been worst just feeling tied all the time with these dizzy spells,

doctor is bringing him back on Wednesday for biopsy and then back on the 18th for more tests but the doctor has already discussed chemotherapy etc, my partner said he's not worried about his hair falling out as he doesn't have any lol, he's on tablets I don't know what they are called but sc Wednesday he's got worst, he's lost weight dizzy spells have got worst and they leave him feeling weak and tried,

we both work and he works away during the week which is hard enough, I'm the main person who keeps everything together, runs the ship in the house and does everything lol, I know it's going to be hard and I'm prepared for the worst, I just want to help him the best I can be there for him as much as I can, due to Covid I can't be there when he's in hospital which is a pain, the waiting is a nights,are when. All I want is answers.

we are in Northern Ireland 

I hope and pray things go well for u please keep in touch
