  • Hello Sue

    I'm so sorry to hear about your husband's diagnosis. It's understandable that you have some concerns especially as he's been discharged home from the hospital and you have no support. 

    Please contact his GP first thing tomorrow morning. Let the surgery know what has happened and that you need help with his care and pain management. They will be able to arrange for the support that you both need. 

    If you want to talk with one of our nurses for some advice and support you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    Keep in touch and let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
