Hello Cathie I'm so sorry to hear about your husband's diagnosis.  My husband sadly passed away in May 2022.  I'm nearing the first anniversary of his death.  What I'm most grateful for is that I was able to spend every moment of the 10 months with the most beautiful person I've ever met in my life, before he passed.  He fought a battle I'll never know and the chemo treatment had side effects that he didn't always share with me. I think he had more courage and love for me that he kept pushing through. My husband was my best friend and loving partner.  I have memories, which can either make me laugh or cry.  I think everyone's cancer journey is unique to them.   I could rant about the time we'll never have, but I will always be thankful for the time that we did have.   I hope you have family and friends who can support you during this time.
