Re: boyfriend d/x with stage 4 cancer
Dear Valerie,
I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your husband and the grief you faced then and now. I don't know what to say except that I hope you and your boyfriend find some answers and a treatment plan that works. My heart truly breaks with every new diagnosis of cancer. I think even though readers may not post, they are still thinking of you. I understand the need for a reply. That's why I'm posting. I don't have any advice. But I do hope you have a good support group behind the both of you. It's ok to have a meltdown and feel overwhelmed by all this. I hope you'll come back and post on his progress. I'll follow this thread and offer any encouragement and support I can.
