Morning, my name is Linda my husband was diagnosed with lung cancer 3 weeks ago. It does not feel real at the moment as, he does not look or feel ill. I know we have got tough times ahead.
Hi Linda and welcome to the forum. Sorry that it's your husband's diagnosis that has brought you here.
I think many of us can relate to that feeling of it 'not feeling real' .
It doesn't always happen that the patient feels ill or looks ill. In fact, I have a terminal diagnosis, but to all intents and purposes, I still look fine and my pain management means I don't feel unwell, just tired.
It will take time for you both to process the news of your husband's diagnosis, and although you may have some difficult times ahead, somehow I hope you will both find the strength to cope along the way.
Please use the forum to offload, ask questions or rant. You've come to the right place amongst supportive people who understand what you're going through.
