My wife has been diagnosed with a grade iv glioblastoma mulitforme and has been told she will die within 2 years. This is the 2nd tumour she hasn’t had, but this time, only treatment will prolong her life and not save it. Due to her age and fitness, they hope she will survive to nearer the 2 years than the original 12-14 months as she was told by her neurosurgeon. We have come to terms with the situation and are doing everything we can to raise Money for the brain tumour charity, donating hair to a charity called kids with cancer and were hoping to donate her organs. Something which, sadly, we will not be able to do. The problem I have with it is that she’s only 32 and we have 3 children, who are 9, 7 and 6. Youngest one is being tested for autism. We have told the children and they seem upset but at the age where they do not fully understand the situation. One thing is, how do I know my children are fully aware of what’s happening and how do I explain that in later months, they will not be able to see mummy? (As I don’t want them seeing her when she’s needing care. I don’t think it’s the right place for a child). As I know what to expect and what she will Be like and I don’t want to see her like that. My wife. I have a major problem and I don’t know what I could do? I can’t do anything that she does. I try to help but can never get used to doing laundry (folding), styling hair, wrap presents, sort out taxes etc. I can drive and clean and cook but that’s it. I feel guilty for having my children For having to be raised by a father (me) who isn’t very good at anything. People said, with practice it’ll come, but I can’t do it. I’ve been practicing. I just can’t do it. I feel alone. And I don’t know what to do. I wish it was me that were diagnosed and my wife could lead a healthy life. I know she will die, due to where the tumour is, but I feel guilty for not being able to do anything and for having to raise 3 children on my own. Am I panicking too early.
