Aris86,

I am sorry for your loss.

Bladder cancer takes too many too soon. Far too often the disease progresses quickly and overwhelms the valiant fighter. Following the period of mourning and reflection, life continues on for the survivors with their memories of the fallen. We wish the best possible future for you and the children.

With Sympathy,
Jack

Aris86,

I am sorry for the tough situation you are in. Please make time to take care of your self and the children. No one cannot keep such intense emotions bottled up for long without it taking a toll on both physical and mental health.

Please talk to the doctor or a hospital social worker about a referral for you and the children. Explore the options available to help the family - you, your husband and the children - best deal with all of this.

The medical staff makes time for emotional release after a day on the job. You need and deserve to make time also. Please ask for help.

Best,
Jack

My husband was the healthiest person I had known. When he was 35 he went to the doctor to check why he was urinating blood, they just gave him something for bacteria and it went away for a short time, it happened coming and going for about 4 years until he stared having pain. He end up been diagnose with bladder and liver metastatic stage 4 giving him 2 years. Now after a few days from turning 40 years old and a month after been diagnose. We are in a hospice care facility because the cancer has spread so quickly that his liver and kidneys are in no shape to start any treatment. We have 4 beautiful kids from 13 to 1 year old and now all I hear from people is telling me to be strong and all I can do is not have any emotions so my husband don't see me sad. Cancer is a horrible disease.
