I noticed you said "Army" in your message. Thank you guys for your service to our country. I too am a vet and was diagnosed with my cancer in the Dallas VA. I had heard so many horror stories of the mental health department that I was actually scared to go, but when I finally did it was a life saver. It is so good for you and your husband to be able to talk to someone. Someone who understands and can actually help with ALL the questions that are going thru you mind. If I can encourage you to do anything it would be to reach out to a mental health professional.
With prayers, Bryan
15 year survivor of tonsil cancer. In 2002 I was diagnosed with Stage III squamous cell carcinoma. I had a left neck dissection, teeth removed, and 38 radiation treatments. In 2015 I received a feeding tube and in 2016 a trach, both due to radiation side effects. But I'm happy to say that life has been good to me!!
