I have been a caregiver to my wife since she was diagnosed with H/N cancer 14 months ago. We have gone through hell the last 14 months and now this.
I am very worried. If this turns out to be cancer I worry about the added burden to our lives, my future health and the impact on my employment and finances. She seems unfazed however.
