Hello,
First and foremost, I want to say that I hear you and I am so sorry that you were diagnosed with cancer. As a caregiver for others, it’s almost in fathomable to think that you could come down with any kind of illness.
I’m so sorry that your husband doesn’t see or maybe he can’t take care of you the way you would like him to. I am new to this group. I just signed up today but I too was diagnosed with multiple myeloma a year and a half ago. I’m in remission, but my mother.(Step mom) was diagnosed 22 years ago with multiple myeloma and also four years ago was diagnosed with Parkinson’s so I feel that every time I’m around her it’s all eyes. All attention is paid to her and very little if any on me so I do completely understand how you feel if I could offer one or two pieces of advice is that it’s so important that you take care of yourself whether that’s going for a walk or having a cup of your favorite beverage, hot coffee, tea and that you take at least 35 to 40 minutes each day just for yourself.
Deep breathing helps a lot. I’m a huge fan of Tony Robbins and he talks about something called priming. You can look it up on YouTube.

It’s only 10 minutes and it’s a way to start your day with positivity fresh oxygen getting into your body and remembering beautiful things that have happened in your past in present day and in the future it’s a wonderful way to start your day. I do it very often and I also do yoga four times a day at my local health club . I want you to know I hear you and I see you. 🥰
With Joy,
