Carrying
Hi,
My beautiful wife, my friend,
my love, the strongest person mentally and physically I have ever met was diagnosed with cervical cancer in March.
Im caring for her, sorting out her meds and taking her to all her appointments and yet its feels like im not doing enough, I know she feels helpless as she is usually the person that takes care of everyone else and is constantly looking for stuff to do like she used to before she became sick. The being a patient is getting to her but she will get past it.
I cant sleep properly because im worried she will wake up in pain and i wont be at hand to help comfort and ease her. It is really hard listening to the person you love groan in agony in their sleep and know there is nothing you can do to help.
Im hoping and praying all day everyday that the treatment works and she beats this horrible disease for good.
I just wanted to share a little bit of our story and tell everyone to stay strong and there is a world of love and support out there for anyone who needs it ❤

Hi
Sorry to hear about your wife. Sounds to me like you are doing everything in your power to help your wife as she battles this terrible disease.
I know it is easy for me to say but try not to beat yourself up about how you are coping with looking after your wife.
Wishing you and wife all the best as you face this battle together.
Best wishes
