Has anyone started a new marriage being Stage 4?

Julie - I left my husband and one month later I was diagnosed with stage IV Inflammatory BC. I started dating a wonderful man at that time. He cared for me and cleaned my wounds for me. He made me promise not to leave him. I almost married him, but things did not work out (my choice). I dated another man later on, and he had no problem with my health issues or scars. Since the leukemia, I have not dated. Getting healthy is my main concern. I am now healthy enough to date, but am too happy living life. You are hurt and going through so many emotions right now. After a while, you will realize that you don't have to walk on egg shells anymore, you can buy what ever toothpaste you want and you don't have to watch that show if you don't feel like it! Things will fall in to place...

Julierene,

I can't give you advice on the future and tomorrow. or marriage

But I can tell you that you'll be going thru hell with it.

so the most important thing here is your health and YOUR well being.

the rest will follow,if it is meant to be.

Whoever meets you and think of what you're worth as a human being will not care about the rest, there a few of them out there like that.

Remember your health is first. "Screw" the rest

I, too am glad to "see" you back - I was thinking about you today. i really can't add to what the wise ladies have said. You deserve to have love and happiness in your live, cancer or not. People do...why not you.
