Husband has terminal cancer and kids so young

A few months ago my husband (aged 44) was diagnosed with lung cancer and the prognosis isn't good. Our children are only 3 and 6 and I am beyond devastated. I feel so lonely going through this even though friends and family are being supportive. Is anyone else in a similar situation?

    Hi Meely,

    A very warm welcome to our forum, although I am truly sorry to hear why you've joined us. Sadly, you are not alone. There are a number of people on this forum who have been through the heartbreak that you are undergoing at the moment and, I hope that some of them come along to chat to you soon.

    In the meantime, there are others on the forum, who are happy to help and support you as much as we can. How is your husband keeping at present? This is possibly the hardest thing that you will ever have to do in your life, but try to make as many memories as you can together.

    Please keep in touch and remember that we are always here for you.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
