Completely lost

Hi all, this is my first post.

My husband is 40 and was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in January this year.  He wnt in for a whipple in March and they ended up removing his entire pancreas and other organs due to its size.  Following his 2nd round of chemo he became poorly, unable to keep anything down, and we have just been told that the cancer is back in several places and this is the end of the road for him.  To say I am completely utterly devastated is an understatement! I brought him gone from hospital on Tuesday this week, and whilst we don't know how long he has, we are

talking days not months.  He is no longer able to eat or drink due to the location of the cancer.

How are we supposed to accept this? I'm 41, we've been together for 22 years and have a 14 year old son.  
I am just so lost and unable to Comprehend what comes next.

  • I am so sorry to hear this , you must accept all the help you can , make a memory box with your son , spend all your time with your husband and son , let other people look after you all. Don't refuse any help , it's an awful time and accepting it will be difficult , I was lucky I survived breast cancer but my husban has to now have chemotherapy for his stomach but we have not been told much yet , how long for , what type etc , still waiting to see an oncologist to get started. My thoughts are with you all as a family xx
