hi to all, my name is marcie, a couple of months ago i meet a 58
year old man, we have been dateing since, he tells me he has stomach
cancer. i'm really in love with him. it has been 18 years since i've
been with anyone. my kids are grown now and i have time for myself.
anyway, he says he goes to chemo 2 times a week, and dr's gave him
18 months. i have told him how i feel about him, and he in turn says
he is in love with me. i want to go with him to dr's apt. and
tretments, he says no.
I feel he is scared, yes i understand this. he oftens ask me why i
want to be with him, cause hes' going to die. I just tell him i love
him and want to be with him for as long as time will allow, or as
long as he will let me... he has said he wants to stop therpy so we
can be together, but that is not the right thing to do.? sorry for
rambling here it is so hard to get out what i really want to say....
sometimes i feel he is pushing me away. he stills works full time,
and is on the go all the time, he has a lot of energy, and i can't
get him to slow down. i guess what i want to know is: how should i
handle (wrong word) but i dont know how else it say it>>>>>> what
should i say to him. should i stop asking questions? I am a need to
know person. I truly love him and want to be with him and take care
of him. It does not matter to me how much time he has. He says he is
really happy we met and thank god we found each other and he really
truly is in love with me. so please help me. what can i do or say or
i just don't know. what is to be expected in the cancer? does chemo
work? anything anyone can tell me please.
thank you
bless you all
marcie
