So sorry for your loss. I have been living with glioblastoma now for 3 years even the doctors were surprised I have survived so long.We live our lives a day at a time as we never know how long I have left and try not to let it take over our lives. Keep strong and may God Bless you.

I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my husband in November 7 months after he was diagnosed. But almost days after he was diagnosed we could no longer really talk so there was no real chance to say goodbye. I think this is what is so hard with glioblastoma. I would be happy to chat online if you ever need to vent. I get it and I am so sorry anyone else has to cope with the aftermath of this horrible disease. Take care of yourself--easier said than done, I know. Kerry

I totally understand. And when you said you couldn't breathe, it really resonated. I feel like that a lot 8 months on. I saw your post and from Damned66 I wondered if you were the same age as me, 55? I also have a son age 9 when he died (10 now) and cry for all my husband will miss.

I know where you’re at (but am 6 months down the line) . We had 12 weeks from diagnosis to death. Are you pre or post funeral? I wouldn’t wish what you’re going through on anyone-really thinking of you x

Damned66 in reply toChoochootumour

The funeral is the 28th July, how old was your husband ?

Choochootumour profile image
Choochootumour in reply toDamned66

He was a young 66 but I’m 50 with an 11 &14 year old. The funeral was something to focus on for me. Actually I got a bit OTT about it. Then of course was the big come down! Are you getting any support?

Hi Damned66, so sorry about your loss and what you have all had to go through. I was diagnosed with the hitchhiker in my head in November 2020 and have been very lucky with little pain and had amazing support. Have also learnt so much especially about the devil that is steroids. Have just finished the Tom Parker book Hope, fantastic but tough in a. Few places. My daughter bought it for me for father's day and was worried whether mentally o could handle it. . No worries thereand I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend every body should read it.
