I am still in such a state of shock.... I can't believe this is all happening....another cancer in our family. I mean seriously, why??? He is only 39 years old...this should not be happening!!!
It is very difficult to watch the person that you love feeling so down and hurt. And knowing that there is nothing I can do to "fix" it!! He is scared of course and so worried about the bone marrow test. Anyone know what that entails??? He feels like an outcast he says; and feels like everyone is being extra nice to him because they think he's going to die. All I can do is reassure him that these things are not true.
On a lighter note, we did go to our company Christmas party last night...I was very happy that he felt like getting out of the house and was able to keep his mind off of this (at least most of the time). But, of course I had too many adult drinks and I feel terrible today. It is 3:30 and Joe and I just got out of bed (we showered and dressed earlier, but have just been laying around)...part of it is hangover and part of it is just being down and trying to help each other feel better!!
Again, I ask to keep our family in your prayers....the kids do not know about this yet and I don't even know when or how to tell them. Please ask everyone you know to pray for us-- especially Joe!! He is only 39......
