Hi mysmugcat

I'm really so sorry to hear this news. My heart goes out to you, it is a very difficult time for you both. I hope you will be offered and accept all the support you can get, so please ask your GP what's available.

Mysmugcat, I am so sorry. This is awful. My love and prayers to you, both. I' ve been having a rough morning, but my tears are for you now.

I am so sorry Mysmugcat and I don't know what to say as words are so inadequate at times like this. I will just say that we are here for you so feel free to come in and talk to us even if it's just to rant and rave over how shite life can be sometimes. We will be happy to listen I assure you. Take care. x

Hello. I am so sorry for you both.

Are you having treatment for your depression and anxiety? Were you suffering before your partner was diagnosed?

I also hope you get the right support. GP is first port of call and hopefully they can put you in touch with others.

Lots of hugs to you both xxxx
