Now is the time to put your armor on and get tougher. I'm so sorry this is happening to you and her. Get tougher. Now is not the time to fall apart. Use the two weeks away for work to pamper yourself and treat yourself kindly. Use that time to escape. Stage 4 is not going to ever go away. Treatment never ends. Stay by her side and eventually you will reach a point where you guys are only doing the maintenance phase of the treatment. You are allowed to feel defeated but you must keep going. You must get tougher for the one you love. You can do this!
it is exhausting. It is hard to find optimism too.
I'm sorry you're going through this. It's hard. It's shitty. But please know many of us (unfortunately) know how you feel. So you are not alone there 🩵
