upset caregiver: what do these results mean?
Cancer | Last Active: Oct 12, 2021 | Replies (116)Comment receiving replies
So sorry to hear about the hurricane. Hope all is ok. You have to care of your life first.
I have judt talked to my husband at his job. I asked him if he thought any more of telling his family.
His reply "no, nothing for sure to tell". And that he hasn't had the biosopy yet. My reply, biosopy was for what type it is and best treatment for it. He, said it was never confirmed. I'm trying to remain calm, here. How did he miss it, ? Dr never came out and said, yes. Its cancer. 95 % sure., it is. It has the markings. Or have missed I it? Or is he in denial?

@scared2 i know you must be scared and confused and upset about this whole scenario that you are going through. But what i get from your postings is strength. No matter what, you keep facing the problem. And you are doing it by yourself because your husband doesn’t want to face it right now. If he wonders about your being on the internet, just explain that its all anonymous, no one knows who you are or where you live. We’re just here to support you and help you through this tough time.
Do you see yourself as strong?

Do you have his test results? All of his test results should be in a file so that as he goes along and seems confused you can show him what you are talking about. Was he like this with his first cancer?
Being in denial is a pretty good guess and a natural one for a cancer patient. I don't think that I was in denial as much as I didn't want to think about it. I respect your husband's privacy and I respect your need for support outside of your family.
Is the work that your husband does very strenuous? Can he handle it all right now?
