[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am absolutely flabbergasted at the people on husband's side. The woman has CANCER this isn't the time to be like "do you ask him if he's ok" Some of you must be raising terrible sons.[/quote] Caregiver burnout is a real and terrible thing. Yes, she has cancer, and because of people like you, caregivers are just supposed to sit up and shut up. Sounds like he stepped up last time, and probably will again, but he is also allowed to be tired, angry, frustrated, frightened, sad. Yes, OP is the sick one, but it also sounds like she has a support network. She is not as alone and isolated as she is forcing herself to be at the moment. [/quote] Not really. He played silent taxi cab driver and order in guy. Know what’s lonelier than an empty house? A house with a spouse who never talks or has back and forth conversations with anyone. [/quote] And yet, the relationship has endured another 6 years. You know what makes you realize life is too short for being in places you’re not wanting to be in? A life changing diagnosis. It’s a unrealistic fairy tale to believe that one person in your life can be everything at all times. And a lovely house is not the only place in the world - you have to fill your own bucket with the people and things that make you not feel lonely. [/quote]
