About Robertfin26

Hello - I'm 62 - disabled - married to a Serbian- up and down relationship - without any symptoms he's been diagnosed Stage 4 cancer of the stomach gone through stomach wall and now there are 3 tumours in his liver and one on his bladder - it's in surrounding liver tissues - he was given 2 months to live without chemo and a few months more with - he is struggling with the chemo - I've brought his elderly sister over to speak in his mother tongue and cook his favourite foods - he stopped communicating with me weeks ago and is so difficult with me - I feel so rejected not least of all as he took himself off prior to diagnosis into the smallest room in the house - I've taken a month off work to take him to Drs Hospitals - sorted McMillan and Palliative care from our nearest hospice - also got the District Nurses coming for a chat this week but all I get from him is that I'm not supportive - he just wants to be left alone - yet spends hours with his sister or on Skype to friends - why have I been alienated - anybody else going through the sane thing?
