Hi! I am in the same camp as you. My husband was diagnosed in December 2023. Had surgery a 10 days after discovery of tumor, 90 percent was removed. He just completed 6 weeks of radiation and chemo. He will start chemo again in a month for 6 months. He will also start wearing the Optune. We are hoping for a great outcome but enjoying each day not knowing what the future holds.

Both of you have the right attitude: enjoy each day and focus on the present! Try to embrace the “new normal” and focus your energy on what brings you and your loved one joy. For us, that is family, our closest friends, faith, and getting outdoors as much as possible. With my husband’s limited energy (he was diagnosed in Nov 2022) we work to prioritize our time and set an intention every day to make it the best day possible, whatever that means for that particular day.
