DF has been in hospital more than he's been out for several months having chemo - He's waiting on a stem cell transplant.
I'm doing my best for him, in the sense that I see him every day, take him out, cook meals for him etc (the rest of the family do help when they can but I tend to be the default person)
He is very down, he's been through a hell of a lot so it's perfectly understandable. He's been offered counselling but tells them he's fine when clearly he isn't. The problem is, it's starting to affect my MH as well, whenever I'm with him he's constantly sighing and huffing.
I've been through a similar situation with dm, in that she was terminally ill but even near the end, she stayed positive and seemed to get pleasure from spending time with the family, eating good food etc. I just feel completely helpless with DF, it's like whatever I say or do makes no difference 🤷🏼♀️
