Dear Jenny Joy. I do empathise with you,,,,there is just no answer, I find the best thing is to try to get into their space, Try to see they are depressed and they feel very helpless, As usually the Man Is the one who is Brave, strong, in charge ,, Now, they are a patient. They get angry and frustrated, And take it out on us. I find the best thing Is for you to find a good psychologist /counsellor......I have been going t a really good one, He helps me to cope ,,, Also I have my spiritual beliefs which have helped The CancerCoucil has a helpline,,,,,you can call them ,,,,they have counsellors I found them helpful Also if you have a church Minister it will help I have a friend who is a Monk ,,he has helped enormously Good luck and may God bless you

Dear grieving wife. I feel for you as I am going through the same thing.. My husband has stage 4 lung cancer with metastases in Liver and lymph We go thru a grieving process, It is called anticipatory grief I think it would be good for you to see a counsellor,,,or a psychologist. Who can help you go thru this I am doing that and it has helped me .... It is a dreadful situation, I am absolutely exhausted ,,, We are just going to go through it, it will be a hard road... They become very difficult with the medication affecting their behaviours,,, Please be assured there is help for you,,,, u can join the carers association in your state,,,,,they are a huge help Best wishes. Susy

I am upset today as my husband is exhibiting difficult behaviours,,, No matter what I do , he complains,,,,does not want to eat what I cook, says it tastes bad,,, Argues about everything I say to him,,, was listening g in to my phone conversation today and shouting out " stop talking rubbish" , and words that would make a sailor blush too,!!!! He refused lunch, then complained he never gets anything to eat here,,.. Called me for everything threatened to sell the house and change his will.... All because I was on the phone talking to a woman he dislikes,,,, ( he dislikes all my friends) I am u nable to reason with him..... Do other women find that their partners with cancer are emotionally unstable like that? Susy ,,,

Dear Lynn. That is just too sad altogether for you ,,, I feel your pain,,, My husband just went in to hospital with high blood pressure one night and next morning was diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer! That was August last year. I was devastated....and cried for weeks,,,, He is still with me, And has not had to have chemo for 2 months as the tumours shrank... But,,,,,,,we both know that this is not going to be the end of it..... I wonder if you have Solace group where you live?...try to find Solace,,,,it is the most wonderful group for grieving people.... I will be heading there when the time comes... Love and light to you,,,,,Susy

It ca take some time for Fentanyl to take effect, the Tramal is very strong,,,,doses may have been too close together,,,, The Dose of Fentanyl may have been too high to start him on... It has to be on for three days , then renewed each three days... It will be better than oral tablets , as it is not going i nto the liver. I worked as RN in aged care for 20 yrs and we used those patches on most residents for severe pain.

Hi. . I am going thru lung cancer ( my husband). Have you heard of the group called Solace? A friend of mine highly recommended it to me if my husband passes away....she attends , says it has given her so much comfort. I am caring for my husband now,,,,,it is really awful..... I feel very alone too.....
