Change

Well my life is about to take a massive left turn.

My wife was diagnosed with breast cancer a month ago. So currently the plan is six months of chemo and then surgery. I'm trying very hard not to go down a very dark rabbit hole but it's incredible difficult.

 Also have ADHD and getting my brain just to quiet down a bit so I can calmly process the vast amount of information that's currently buzzing about.

My mood hasn't been great for years and trying to get the NHS to  deal with my TRD is frustrating at best and we now have this to deal with.

I will be there for my wife every step of the way, no matter what the outcome but I'm under no illusions how hard this is going to be.

My wife is the core of my world and I don't want to contemplate what could happen.

So, sorry for the waffle but I just need to park these thoughts somewhere.

  • You're not waffling, cancer is a horrible illness and the treatments are horrible too. The outcomes are getting better all the time, but of course you worry, why wouldn't you?

    There is support out there for the families of cancer sufferer's, use it, its what they're there for. Others have given you the address for McMillan, the hospital where your wife is being treated may have support services in place who can hel to support you.
