I posted some months ago about my husband having Non-Hodgkins lymphoma, it started in January and he has been through 6 cycles of chemotherapy and reacted well. Unfortunately the last PET scan picked up on a new area of disease which has grown and now spread. He was so strong when we were talking to the consultant I was so proud of him, however, he asked how long she though he had left. 4-6 months........... I was thinking maybe a year which with help would stretch out to 18 months. But 4-6 months for heavens sake. He is doing his best to prepare me. With the practical stuff, but emotionally I’m a wreck, just for the few minutes whilst watching some rubbish on tv together, we forget, and live in blissful ignorance. At the moment he looks really well, and has no symptoms. How have other people coped with such awful news?
