Michele,

It sounds like you have some really valid reasons for feeling as you do. I helped care for my sister along with her husband. She fought the cancer for 2 1/2 years, the last 8 months she and her husband moved in with us as she needed full time care. Connie didn't behave as your husband is, but I'm sure everyone reacts differently with dealing with one's mortality. Have you two gone to counseling or joined a support group? I know that my sister Connie and her husband were inseparable during this whole ordeal. When she was in remission (after surgery), she went back to work and lived life to the fullest. She was always so grateful and loving. I really think Jesse could benefit from some counseling, might need to figure out what his expectations of life and your relationship are in this next phase. Is it possible he is depressed?? Hang in there and keep venting...it helps with the stress and anxiety you are going through. I'll keep you and Jesse in my thoughts.

Nancy
