Hello everyone, I've joined this forum as I'm feeling lost. My wife passed yesterday, she had stage 4 triple negative breast cancer that had also resulted in removal of a brain tumour in 2021. Unfortunatly two weeks ago we were told that no chemotherapy would help as she now had leptomeningel disease. She was in the local hospice for a week and passed yesterday. The only degree of comfort I have is that she is no longer on any pain as it was heartbreaking to see her like that, just awful. Myself and our daughter were with her when she went and I'm hoping that she could hear us and know we were with her in the room with her.
Im going to ask the hospice for some counselling for us both, I'm sure that my wife waited for our daughter to arrive before leaving. I was giving updates on how far away she was and I think that helped her wait as she had said to the nurses earlier that she had had enough and wanted to go. I just can't believe I won't see her again. Would she have heard us? I was with her all day, it's a bit of blur now but I was talking to her most of the time, telling her what I was doing, how I'd miss her and thankful that we had met. We had been married 25 years last month. Life if just so unfair.
