OK!  I'm very new to these discussion groups though not to cancer.  As a nurse, I attended to several patients in a hospital environ and cared for my own mother until her passing from cancer not quite 3 yrs ago.  It was very emotional watching her fade.  Now I find myself in a situation that makes me feel like I'm being torn in several directions.  I am in Vic and my husband is in WA He was coming home 3 times a year.  4 weeks ago he was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer with mets. I can and have got a G2G pass to go to WA but have to isolate for 2 weeks before I see him.  Now he wants me not to come.  He is really angry at me, charmer to everyone else.  As you can see, several directions.  My 2 younger sisters are insisting I should go over to him.  Our little farm cannot be left untended because of our animals. He had his first 3hr chemo yesterday.  Very rapid decline in the last 4 weeks.  He cannot breathe without oxygen.  I am so fearful that he will go before I get a chance to see him.  I'm not coping very well because of Covid laws I'm stuck.  I would go to him if there was a way without having fight for a way. I know I'm not the only one in this type of situation. It is super hard trying to deal with my husbands heath and Covid out there ( like the great wall of China blocking the way for many).  At this stage its just taking one day at a time. ... View more
