My lovely fella is very anaemic, has abdomen and pelvic pain, and is losing weight at a very fast rate.
He is diabetic and has an auto immune illness. They are currently under control but these new symptoms are frightening....
We are currently waiting on test results but im so afraid im going to lose him soon.

I'm sorry that it was bad news - cancer is just horrendous.

As a pp said it does bring things into focus and I shed a tear to hear he had proposed. I hope you can plan something fitting to celebrate the love you have for each other.

I hope the op goes smoothly today.

Oh Ludoole :( that is horrible news. I'm so sorry to hear that. Your positivity in this situation is so admirable, and I hope the operation goes well so that you can spend as much time together as possible.
Congratulations on your engagement, I hope you can both focus on planning a beautiful ceremony as soon as the op is over, it will give both of you, as well as your DC and families, something nice to look forward to. Thanks

Its been a whirlwind 24 hours!
I stayed in his hospital bed all last night with him. Just talked and held each other all night long.
He had his op this morning and was very ill afterwards and put in itu. This evening we were called to the hospital and told the next 24 hours were critical. He looked awful with tubes and bags everywhere and he was on a ventilator.
Hospital told us to go home and they would call if he deteriorated further. I didn't want to go but I hdnt slept in 60 hours.
Anyway I called not long ago and hes' off the ventilator! !!!
