[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was he supportive the first time you had cancer?

I'm a 6 year cancer survivor, and my spouse at the time wasn't very supportive. Our son was under 3 and it was terrifying and isolating.  We're still together. If my cancer ever came back I would leave. What is the point of being married if you don't have someone there to support you at your lowest points?

He was more supportive than he is now, mostly with doing "things" like driving me somewhere, or cooking dinner. He wasn't great at talking about it then, but he also wasn't as checked out as it feels to me he is now.

We haven't told extended family, friends, work, etc., yet.  I have two friends that know and understand that the inner circle on this is small. They are great but I still feel like I'm wishing I had some support from my spouse so what you said resonates with how I'm feeling right now. Terrified and isolated....and just really sad. [/quote]

Well now his kids aren’t babies and they are older and verbal. So he can’t keep neglecting and ignoring everyone and life.

He needs to grow up and step up. He sounds like a non-adult who married and  breeded.[/quote]
