Thank you so much x I feel guilty as we had a long ‘cold’ period and it only came back together when he was ill. So it’s one of those ‘I wish I’d not done that, said that…’ and in it goes.
The last 6 months I feel I only really knew the real him x

I was told that 95% of people grieving are focused on regrets. It is apparently a normal part of grief, or so I was told.

My husband has stage IV cancer and is starting radiation and chemo here soon. I have the exact same situation. We have had problems for years and now that he is sick I feel guilty for things I have said, things I have and have not done. In fact I was getting ready to move out when we found out he has cancer. Now I'm wondering what I can say to him or how I can build a better bond during this time. I'm worried I'll think of what to say when it's too late. Does anyone have suggestions on what they wish they would have said? Thank you
