Got bad news today re: DH
This is going to be long, so if you're not interested you can move on. I don't have any real life friends that I can talk to. I don't want to post it on Facebook either, because it's a pretty sensitiv...

We all wish we could make your problems go away.Glad you could write about it; it's not good to have to bottle it all up inside. Is DH spiritually ready for departure whenever the time comes? If you both know that he'll be going to the far better place, that will give some peace of mind (not that anything can make such a trying time truly easy).
Philippians 4:6-8 comes to mind.
Oh,yes, we are believers and we've already had some of "those" conversations. One of the things that has helped us cope with his illness is singing in the choir. Last summer we joined a traditional Methodist church that really emphasizes good, classic church music. We are musicians so this has given both of us a boost of faith. DH does his best, singing on the exposed tenor parts, mouthing the words at other times when he doesn't have the breath to sing. Still, he gets so much out of it I wouldn't dare tell him to stop. I figure at this point he can do whatever he wants to do and is capable of doing.
