Husband has gmb4 brain cancer

hi new to this, this has been a roller coaster from the start and now after going through 2 operations we are now told he is not well enough for any invasive treatments it's just palliative care. He hasn't been out of hospital and it's now 10 weeks. He is on a syringe driver with moraine anti psychotic and carmazipne to ease everything. I'm losing the person I love most in the world to this illness I despice!!  Would love to just have someone who really understands the uncertainty everyday brings. 

  • So sorry to here about your husbands diagnosis.  I was diagnosed with breast cancer last year had two surgeries with at least 2 procedures to go. 

    I was really concerned about my children and siblings through all this as I know how hard it is. My cousin has terminal brain cancer and after some arrangements is now at home in a hospital bed in his own bedroom as its where he wanted to be. 

    Every day brings new hope, new fears, new changes, all of them pulling you in different directions emotionally.  Every treatment you hope will help to get back a part of what you have lost and give you more time. I hope your love for him will give both of you the strengh to go on. Take care. 

  • Hi I’m very new to this also x my husband is 45 yr and had head ach and misdiagnosed with depression we have a 4 year old. He got gmb4 diagnosis after the most awful night and day of my life (still ongoing ) I feel your pain xxx 

  • hi les,im new to all off this including cancer,so do excuse me.

    im unable to give you any medical advise but i can get how you are feeling!

    my fit and healthy mum was being tested for lung cancer for 5 months and we was told every time it was non-malignant! 

    she continued with test until they found cancer! in the time from diagnosing to waiting for treatment my mum literally lost the use of he whole body we was told it was brain mets and her cancer was to advanced for treatment!! it came as a such a shock seeings as they struggled to even find cancer!

    i too have lost the person i knew! This brave lady now just so weak and frail!

    cancer never shocks me!

    i hope you arr able to take care of yourself.

    best wishes always
