  • Welcome to the forum Gand although I'm sorry to hear about your boyfriend and for the reason you fnid yourself here.

    Coping with a terminal diagnosis can be very difficult but you are not alone. Many members here have been in a similar situation so they will really understand what you are going through at the moment and now that I've replied I'm sure they will post soon to offer their support and advice. In the meantime I have found some information on our website about this that may help you and your boyfriend at this time.

    I see you mentioned your boyfriend is in a lot of pain and that he gets cross when you try to let someone know. I can't imagine how difficult that must be but I would recommend giving our cancer nurses a call as they may be able to advise on the best way to approach this situation. You can call them for free on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Post as much as you need to Gand and remember that we're always here if you need us.

    Kind Regards,
