Hello everyone. I'm new to this and terrified. My husband has just been diagnosed with mesothelioma, the asbestos-based terminal cancer. I am in a kind of surreal state right now, trying to digest the mass of information that's being thrown at me, but unable to see beyond the end state. We have no children; I have no family left; we have only my husband's mother and sister in a distant location and they have problems enough. I can't stop crying, but I try to do it when my husband is sleeping.
