Hi Wendy
thats a nasty diagnosis in one so young,he must have a very high pain threshold to have been so advanced at diagnosis.You will find lots of help and advice on being a primary caregiver to your husband over the next few weeks,and believe me when i tell you that you will become the most important person in his recovery beside himself.You sound like me in terms of need to know,and i needed to know everything before it happened so i was prepared and had some idea of what to expect,even so there was a lot happened that i didnt expect,but nothing that someone here couldn't help me with or at least support us through.

you will never be alone through this.

love liz
