lost my precious husband 2 weeks ago to colon cancer, I cared for him 1 1/2 years thru the awful, ugly chemo side effects, and watching him waste away from 230 pounds to 127. I am lucky that he was at home, he was a strong believer in heaven and I know that is where he is now. I also have the responsibility of his 96 year old father who we never thought would survive him. I stay busy but cry everyday. Having this forum to belong to is a comfort. We had one child who lives far away. I'm doing this alone One day at a time I hear everyone say
