Hi Mary,
I think you are doing a wonderful thing being there everyday for your husband! He needs you very much. He apparently realizes that something is wrong with him and he can't do anything about it. That's frightening for him. But he does have you and I'm sure that helps him a lot. My husband had lung cancer. He died in 2024. As he got sicker he was getting more confused and was afraid I wouldn't return even if I was just going into the other room. He was frightened because his body wasn't the same as it had always been. I kept telling him how much I loved him and that I would never leave him. He died before he would have had to go into a nursing home because he was falling a lot and I couldn't lift him. In some states, it's the law that if you fall too many times and call 911, they automatically put you in a nursing home. It happened to a friend of ours.

Be there for your husband as often as you can. Even if he gets to the point that he doesn't know who you are you will seem as a friend to him and he needs a friend now. Be grateful for the time you have together. There may come a time when you won't be visiting him anymore. I'd give anything if I could just tell my husband one more time how much I love him and hug him.

Also ask God for help and direction. He is there for us. God will be there for you and your husband. God helped me and my husband get through that awful time with lung cancer. We got a lot of prayers answered. I'll say a prayer for both of you. I wish you both the best.
Blessings,
PML
