caring for someone with cancer

My husband has just been dignosed with lung cancer which has travelled to his spine.he has been fitted with a back brace and allowed home.Each time he takes his medication he vomits.Can anyone tell me if this is terminal and/or how long you are likely to survive this.He says he does not want to go through radiotherepy and chemo if he is likely to die at the end of it,I feel I have to respect his wishes.

  • Hi Mivvi = good morning = I am also a carer!!! No-one knows the future = you could ask his cancer team I suppose - but its not as clear cut as that I guess. You are both in an awful situation and all I can offer you is my prayers and wishes. So, you are not alone and we will all try to offer some support to you and yr husband caught in this terrible business. There is peace and things may not be bad. Ask the team just how effective is the treatments?
