Not wanting to burden anyone with my problems I just need to express my feelings to someone and I feel that this forum is a gathering of friends and confidents and if anyone on the forum has gone through the same experience perhaps they would like to PM me for support. Please note I am not looking for sympathy more for support. To be honest I don't know what I am looking for. Perhaps I just need a shoulder to cry on.
My problem is I can't show any emotion at home because Dot would pick up on it straight away but I feel like just going somewhere quiet and having a bloody good cry.
Back in April my wife of 51 years was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. She has been having chemo therapy but I feel this has not been to successful and she is now on a course of tablets.
My biggest problem is I have no one to talk to as I have to put on a brave face to her and the family whilst at the same time I have had to watch her health deteriorate on a daily basis.
I would add that this is the worst time of my life and I am sorry to say that whisky and cigs are my only support at the moment.
Sorry to burden the forum members with my problem but it seems I have no where else to turn
Please I do not want sympathy sometimes life can be an absolute s**t
I hope you all can see where I am coming from
best regards Ian (Dotslad)
