Hello Suziwad

I'm sorry to hear about your husband's diagnosis. Understandably things are difficult for you both at the moment and it's natural that you may be experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions at the moment. 

I know that we have had a number of members previously share the difficulties that they have experienced with caring for a loved one with incurable cancer. What support do you have Suziwad? Has your husband been referred to the palliative care team? Do you have family and friends close by who are supporting you both?

Don't be afraid to reach out to the team responsible for your husband's care if you have questions about his treatment and/or health. Hopefully, they will be able to offer you both some support and reassurance. 

We do have some information on our website about taking care of yourself. Do try and take some time to look after your own health as well. If it would help to talk things through with one of our nurses you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. 

Keep in touch Suziwad if it helps to have a safe space to put down in writing how you're feeling. We'll do what we can to support you. 

Sending you both my best wishes,

Hello Suziwad

I'm glad to hear that you have some good support available from the local hospice. Sounds like a good idea to give them a call this week and see if you can access some further support. 

It's not easy juggling everything but there are lots of people out there willing to listen and offer help if they can so don't be afraid to reach out. 

Best wishes,
