Subject: In need of advice
Date: 05/04/2008
My husband has just been diagnosed with Stage 4 EC with mets to liver, kidney and lung. We were told without the mets...survival of 12 months is expected but due to the mets....4-6 months. Doctor also stated "that doesn't mean I haven't seen someone at 2 1/2 years". While I am saddened by this news I am also a realist and take charge person while my spouse procrastinates by nature. I am having anxiety over what the future will bring for both of us. At this point he is talking of "going back to work next week" but it is difficult to even get off the couch or take a shower. I am trying to encourage him to get our affairs in order but he heard "2 1/2 years". I would and am looking forward to the 2 1/2 years but also feel we should get things in order now so we can enjoy those years. I am so afraid he will depart this world and no affairs will be in order. I need help and not sure where to turn.
