My husband as got terminal pancreas cancer

He as just had his first chemo I feel helpless 

  • Hi, My husband also has pancreatic cancer that has spread to the liver and he cannot be cured. We have just had round 4 of chemotherapy. I felt totally helpless after the first one. Didn't feel anything I did was useful, though now I know it was. This is going to be a tough journey for you, as we are only just realising ourselves. My husband is young and fit and has only just started to understand how ill he is which had been quite upsetting. He had no side effects to start with but now they are beginnnig to kick in. You need to try and take one day at a time, try to plan little things to look forward to, that has certainly helped us recently. I hope you find some strength, make sure you use your family and friends to help you get through, we'd be lost without ours x
  • Graham ended up in hospital for a fluid drip as he as not drank or ate enough , think his a had all the symptoms in the first week . We have our daughters wedding to look forward to at being of July . The chemo as been a big shock to both of us , just a nother hurdle to get over xx   

  • Hi, I hope you have a wonderful day, make the most of it. My husband was admitted last week also for a drip and antibiotics, it's a scary time but the staff were amazing. Try and take each day as it comes. Let us know how they wedding goes xx 

  • Hi bit of a up date. Graham as just had his 4th chemo he is doing so well eating putting on weight, doing so well and no pain which is great . This is the first time in four years that he does not have pain. Our daughters wedding was lovely great weather great place and Graham was beaming from ear to ear and there were no tears . I'm not doing to good at the mo all I can see is me being on my own in the future , every one keep asking how gray is but what a bout me. Am I being selfish , I just feel like all I want to do is cry , my weight is piling on too ,not in a good place at the mo . Sorry for putting all this but felt I had to let it out . Can't talk to gray xxx

  • Hi both..

    My mum has stage 4 pancreatic cancer and its inoperable. This is the most devestating thing i have ever had to face. My mum is tiny now and doesnt really eat. Its a daily battle and she has recentl;y lost more and the Creon isnt working. She has started Chemo and they are quite pleased that she is responding ok. Its hard not to think of myn life without her she is everything to me. We are all very close as a family. Shes lukcy she has 4 children who adore her but we are all struggling. I dont know whether i need to look into councelling or help from the GP.

    I feel for you both, my mum and I were meant to be in Italy last week but its all been cancelled. Im hoping one day soon she might feel a bot stronger so we can take a trip to a beach somewhere. 

    Im petrified about it all ending and cant face my life without her. Hope you all stay strong xxx
