People think I’m coping

Hi, I lost my wife in January, she had lung cancer but that didn’t stop her, she was always smiling and joking, people tell me it’s going to get easier but it seems to be getting harder, can anyone give me some genuine advice. 

Would really appreciate it 

  • It all sounds very familiar negligence is shocking these days it's 2020 they were better in the 80s 

    You here all this crap about stand upto cancer 

    ITS THE SO CALLED SPECIALISTS THAT NEED TO STAND UP!!

    if you've got a case fight it put your emotions and energy into it people moan about people wanting to sue but thats the only way to hopefully wake the professionals up and demand better care they need waking up they need TO STAND UP! Sue the ***

    Their lives carry on they've helped wreck ours

  • Hi, I know how u feel too, I am losing my husband at the moment to oesophagus cancer which has gone to liver and now wrapped its nasty little self round his organs, its determined to eat him up, hes 44 and we have 2 girls, they say he has 3 or 4 weeks at most left. We are in NZ and system even worse here, he needed a drug not funded here ( but is in UK). By the time I had researched and found out about it and had him privately tested and started it also private ($4100 every 3 weeks), 6 months had slipped by and it was too late, didnt work. I believe if we were still living in UK he would have started it straight away and have had alot longer with us, system really sucks bigtime and have never felt oncologist was doing everything she could though I asked her so many times and said we would move back to UK she said there was no point, now I know better and we will always wonder "what if" but it's too late for him and they get away with it, hes just another statistic on their chart to them but not to me and my girls...how old are your boys? My two are 8 and 12, so tragic isn't it, we are all suffering big time. He is in hospice at the moment  but we are hoping to bring him home  next week when pain meds stabilized, all they will do for him now.

     

  • I'd love to say something to ease your pain but I can't just cherish every second and try to keep it together talking does help it did for me
