  • Your post touched my heart. My husband is 72. We have been married for 48 years and been a couple for 50 years. He has just been diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer. Like you I am devastated but try to keep a brave and optimistic face on for him. I joined this group as I know I can get support here and we will support you too. 

    I also found my husband's lung cancer specialist nurse to be so helpful. I am sure yours can and will help you too. You can call them anytime, day or night.

  • Thankyou so much. My husband is 60 . We been together since i was 17. We only found out today. He has no symtoms at all . Its such a shock im deverstated cant stop crying . I need to be strong  for him but the thought of life without him is killing me . I will talk with the nurse tomorrow. Im glad i can get support here i really am . Thankyou x

  • I'm really sorry about your husband's diagnosis Joseph27.

    I can't begin to imagine how difficult it must have been to receive this news but I'm glad David and Tootsiepops have shown you that you are not alone and that our community are here for you.

    No doubt you're going through a lot of emotions right now. This is completely natural but if you would like to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    In the meantime, try to take things a day at a time and as David said, go forward gently.

    Best wishes to you both,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
