Re: my beautiful wife update
William,
Reading your post serves to remind all of us that it is not only the patient who has cancer. Our loved ones are also hit with the disease. I am so deeply sorry to hear of your beautiful wife Carol losing her battle with this very difficult disease.
This is such sad news - but please realize that you did all you could. Treatment choices are difficult and there are no right or wrong answers...no one knows at this time what is the perfect choice. We are all making decisons on our beliefs at the time of current information.
These are dark days for you William and I pray that you are strengthen with the knowledge that you were a loving and supportive husband who did everything possible.
Sincerely,
Jean
