Hello Gina74.

My wife was diagonsed with terminal cancer and given less than 2 months. it turned out to be 6 weeks from when it was diagnosed. due to covid19 we brought her home for end of life care. My wife's aggressive cancer caused a thigh break and a dislodged hip joint. it was decided due to any kind of operation would not help her live any longer than they had said, it was decided to let nature take it's course. my wife did not want to know how long she had left. She had two drivers  as she was on a lot of medications, so we talked about taking her on holidays when Covid19 allowed. knowing it was imminant. it was so hard  to pretend she was going to see Christmas that year 2020.

What you do not get from reading about end of life, is the real facts. by all means have a rant at me. I know what you are going through. just before my wife passed away on July 12th at 17.15she had stopped eating and drinking, and the body lasts around a week, or thats what my wife's sister said. as she had gone through the same ordeal with her own mother and her husbands parents. So she knew all the signs. She even rang my daughter to say that she needed to be here, as she did not think she would see the day out.

All that day on Sunday I sat at the bed side holding her hand telling her how much I loved her. my wife of nearly 34 years must have thought I was a stuck record and decided to leave me, just so she did not have to listen to me any longer. If I had one wish I would swap places with her with out a second thought. it's 11 months now since my wife passed away. and even now I shed a tear when I read someone is going through what I did.

My thoughts and best wishes go out to you and your partner .
