My wife wants to divorce me because I have prostate cancer.
I got diagnosed with prostate cancer recently. It’s a life-changing period in my life not because of my diagnosis but also because my wife is leaving me….
she said she can’t do it, she can’t take all this stress and anxiety my condition has caused her so far. This was a more devastating shock to me than my cancer diagnosis.
I don’t understand why she’s wanting to end things between us. I cried, begged, offered her space if she wanted but nothing changed her mind. I don’t understand because we were happy and now she’s walking out on me.
I’ve just started my first round of treatment and it’s torturing both physically and emotionally I don’t want to continue.
I get so weak and feel like I’ve already lost so much. She moved out days ago and although my sister moved in, I’m feeling incredibly lonely and heartbroken.
I need her here but she walked out so easily. Just like that, hasn’t even called to check in on me and I’m about to lose my mind blaming myself and my condition.
I keep considering stopping treatment but if I could, I’d die right now because I love her and can’t handle her absence even when she’s wronged me, I’d still take her back if she wants but she doesn’t. I feel numb.
