Wendy- My husband is the same way. He only talks about it when I tell him that I need to. He acts as if nothing is happening and sometimes I feel guilty because after all HE is the one fighting for his life. Only once did he say that it is more difficult for me because I will be left with 3 teenagers. I try to take my cues from him and not push. Hang in there. There are many on this board who can help.
