I'm struggling to accept the meaning and implications of Stage 4 Lung Cancer which has travelled to the brain of my husband. I'm just on auto pilot. Hubby has had a one off 20 minute radiation procedure last week on the brain, and tomorrow has his first 5.5hr session of chemotherapy, for the lung, to be repeated every 3 weeks for 4 sessions. My hubby also suffers with COPD and is 75yrs old, I am 23 years his junior and falling apart not knowing what the future holds, all I can think is it's not good, but nobody will actually commit to tell me any different. Any advice on coping mechanisms and what I can do to help my hubby would be very much appreciated.
