Hello everyone
My wife was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung and Bone cancer about 4 weeks ago. She has had a session of radiotherapy on her scapula and we understand that there will only be one session. We go on Friday to see the oncologist to discuss further palliative treatment.
To add to our worries we had to vacate our rented property on Friday and move which in itself was very stressful. If I’m honest my mind was completely focused (very badly actually) on the move and trying to get things in some resemblance of order.
Ultimately since then our relationship has deteriorated rapidly over the last 4/5 days with rather hateful things being said from both sides. She wishes me to leave and let her deal with things herself as it’s her illness and not mine...our 18 year old son, who is very close to his mum keeps out of the house as often as possible.
I’ve spoken with Isabel Hospice who have been very kind....I just wondered if anyone else has had reactions like this.
I don’t know what to do really....I suffer with Bi-polar 2 disorder although that is no excuse for the way I’ve reacted....
Any advice gratefully received.
Thanks Gary
