my husband has stage 4 lung cancer was told last Juy just after our wedding anniversary it was such a sthock as had no idea as as no symptons occured although he did have trouble with shoulder it was only a pet scan that revealted it, so hard to see them go down hiill in front ot you, i though i was strong but cant still get head around it not knowing how long he has is very hard just live day to day, although that is hard as he hardly wants to go out, can look after himself but takes so long to do. HE has radiotheherpy supposed to kill off some of the cells seemed to work at first but gone down hill since then, seeing the consultant totommorow so lets hope its not more bad news. it is hard for my son he cannot get his head round the fact he is slowly losing his dad, his older sister is not in the picture (we are estranged from her) so he has to cope and support me while holding down a job being married with a 6 year old son. I am my husband carer as well as his wife and now have to do everything around the home we live in a one bedroom flat in a converted house top floor with no lift have 40 staris to our flat so find it hard to do things that he used to help me with.
