The loss of my wife.

My wife and I was told on the same day we both had cancer.wow you cannot believe that is a knockout blow.Realy that takes a long time take in Properly. We just went outside under the gazebo and cried like we had cried before. I'm crying know as I write this now. Ok back to the story. My wife's Cancer was stage4 terminal.Mine was going to be cut away part of my lung followed  by chemotherapy. Hopefully that was going to sorte me out. My wife's was terminal she said that she would have the treatment to stay with me as long as she could.It broke my heart like you would not believe. I didn't think I would ever get over this. The lonely ness I felt ripped me apart at night. I just couldn't get her out of head.

  • Hello Bobbybear, 

    I was so moved to read your story of how you were both told you had cancer on the same day and cried together under the gazebo. I am so sorry that your wife's cancer was stage 4 and terminal - you both went through so much together and I am so sorry for your loss. I hope that you are recovering ok yourself and if at any time of day or night you feel like reaching out to others who understand what you are going through, rest assured we are there for you and we're thinking of you during this difficult time. 

    Best wishes,
