My husband too is depressed but not due to my cancer or cancer in general but health issues of his own. This depression is reflecting on my recovery...I am trying hard not to fall into depression...I can only immagine how difficult it is for a care giver to watch and be effected by depression...
Wendy hang in there and the only advice I have is remember that it is the illness talking most times and not the person... and it is so difficult not to take things personally...Just keep the love going and he will come around...
Hugs Dianne
