Anon, first digital hugs. I lost my father to cancer, then some years I was told I have cancer, six years ago. I made it, I survived, by the grace of God. Few pieces of advice I'll offer.
First Pray and Pray every day.
The saying, "Don't let the bastards grind you down" Try your best to keep a positive outlook, it takes work and isn't always easy but look for all your blessings, all that's good in your live's and try not to dwell on any of the bad. Keeping faith, love and a positive outlook is key.
None of us know what tomorrow will bring, none of us! So focus on today, don't worry about what "might" happen tomorrow.
Worry really is a useless emotion, you will gain nothing from worry!!! IF you let it, it can consume you, don't let it!! Again, none of us knows for certainty what tomorrow will bring, focus on today.
Lean on others, let them in and ask them to Pray for and with you, don't try to carry all the load alone. (I'm guilty of this one and I only hurt myself by shutting others out.)
Try not to worry, please. These is so much more that can be done today in treatments, so much more. Today they would have been able to save my father, twenty years ago they couldn't. We each have an end date and only God know's when that will be, no doctor can tell you and they are wrong more times then you know. Doctor's also always tell you worst case scenario to cover their asses, always, know that! Take it one day at a time, Pray, trust in God and keep as much of a positive attitude as you can. And most important, take care of yourself and your spouse, make sure you both get plenty of rest and eat well!
I'm Praying for you and your spouse anon. God Bless, stay strong, in all ways. Sound mind, sound spirit, sound body.
