Unhappy living with Cancer

My husband has stage 4 and beyond.  Every time they do radiation it works for 3 or 4 months and then you start the grieving process all over again.  I don’t think anyone in this family including myself is handling well.  His Dr. says to go live and take time to get some happiness in my life but when I do I feel guilty and his family members get mad and gossip and judge and carry on non stop! He’s so sick and they just want drama all the time.  I’ve learned after 22 years of marriage they have never cared about me and just can’t handle the situation. I have chosen to move us closer to my family to get out of all the drama and to have my family and friends to help support us through this.

  • Oh dear, you can do without hassles at the moment.  Do whatever seems right for you and your husband.  The phrase "life is too short" has great meaning for your situation.  His family members are having their own problems too, I imagine but presumably they love your husband in their own way.   What does he say about the disagreements?  It is so difficult to comment on someone else's family situation but I would just repeat this is about you supporting your husband now.  Best wishes.
