Sheila,
Sorry you are going through this with your DH right now - but after 5 years, I suppose we have to give the guy a bit of a break - he was bound to crack a bit at some point.
I think men in general are not all that touchy-feely - and he is probably terrified of losing you, especially with some of the latest developments in your journey. Unforturnately he is expressing himself out of fear and frustration - and let's face it - this disease is the f***ing pits.
As one of the other gals said - Sheila, since I got diagnosed and found this site, you have been one of my heros - Obviously not the same as receiving kudos from your husband, but he's only human.
Please ask someone to take you to a treatment - believe me, people are more than willing to help, they just don't know what to do. Here in Canada the Canadian Cancer Society has volunteers who drive patients to their treatment if they need a ride.
I hope that you get through this with all the grace,dignity and love you deserve.
all the best
caya
