Hi Janey, I am feeling much the same as you...and tonight I went looking for some help. My husband was diagosed 12 months ago with rectal cancer...it's curable they said.....chemo/rad/surgery/ileosomy/chemo/chemo and we were completely gutted on Monday when we were told he has secondaries in several areas...I am in that raw and vulnerable stage at the moment...have amazing friends who want to help and offer support but I really don't know what to ask for. I am angry and sad and constantly crying and don't know what to do to get out of the pit...but hide it all from the family because they won't cope if they see me break down..
