Shock

Posted by angelicajoy21 @angelicajoy21, 3 days ago

My husband was diagnose last Monday with Pancreatic cancer. He will be having a biopsy on Friday. Its hard to comprehend how this awful disease has changed mine and our children's life. I feel helpless most of the time. I try to be strong but my emotions are all over the place. I have watched my husband go from being healthy (pretty much) 2 months ago to a frail person. He seems to accept this god awful cancer better than me. I want to be in denial but i know realistically im just fooling myself. In the meantime I will be encouraging the protein drinks and eating ( he will eat at least one meal).

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Pancreatic Cancer Support Group.

You’re right Pancreatic Cancer is a horrible disease and I suggest that you see a psychologist immediately so you can deal with it. Also there are support groups, including the Seena Magowitz foundation patients participate and help other patients. I’ve been six years and four months so it’s not necessarily a death sentence be a patient advocate for your husband. Don’t stop there is hope
