Thankful now in hospice care to help me. Blessed to see kind words found here. Tomorrow doctor holds an answer of most likely time left. Precious is his alertness in moments. The depth of love expressed so precious as to hate the clock on the wall as ticks loudly at my view. Flooding tears to hide. Miss him when just exit his room even to use bathroom. Short of breath myself from pain in my heart. Emotions so intensified to unable to sleep. Time later to deal with me. Sounds more me. Single parent of 15 years. Love of my life taken in less than a year. Fleeting glimpses of dreams haunt me. Therapy headed definitely. Know this site has given me a hope, comfort, just sometimes a little “good” to my extremely frightening days of loneliness feel in now.
Appreciate those who feel, lead, and partner in care of another.
My husbands treatment is at Levine Cancer Institute in Charlotte, NC. Dr. Martinie surgeon. Dr. Stephen Deal GI. Dr. Crimauldi Radiology. Dr. Salmon ONC. We have been fighting steadily. At first on our mission at this spent 4 1/2 months straight in hospital.
My husband’s liver/liver duct cancer reoccurrence happened less than 6 weeks after having a large mass removed. GI said “outta real estate with stents. Radiology faired well. Chemo too physically unfit. He had Non Hodkins 30 years ago and they removed spleen and gallbladder. So it’s a more difficult task. Recovery of CRE was so hard to fight. Hospice referred via ONC yesterday. Which he said “not yet”! Strong minded and love it. Hangs in there outta love as “I do”.
Thank you for the comforting words to my introduction. Emotional connecting I have had very little time for. His care has been extremely demanding. Ditto on hugs and blessings.
KristinMy husband is on his 2nd treatment of his treatment. It’s not fairing well tho even with his surgery. Being that he began it with very little strength from nutrition issues, CRE infection, and extreme depression. Hanging in there. Unsure if continuing treatments is a possibility. Understand his exhaustion and delicate system but have shed more tears than he will ever known. Coming more to terms that our less than a year marriage will be united while in Heaven. Forever his.
