My Wife Found a Lump on Her Birthday - Jordan | Cancer Caregiver | The Patient Story

[@cathytauscher6760]

This story is an excellent representation of the impact that a cancer diagnosis has not only on the patient but on family members. The experience really puts the family on high alert not only for their loved one but also for themselves. The larger cancer centers should have support groups in place for family members and caregivers as well.

[@ThePatientStory]

everyone is affected when this awful disease strikes a family :(

[@tetianastasiuk3073]

Thank you for your honest and true story! It’s so important to talk about such things. God bless your family!

[@louisedasilva6046]

I think that you are an amazing husband, father and person.

Thank you for sharing your story. It is scary. Taking your photos are a real blessing to others too. I was dx in Aug. 2023 with agressive endometrial cancer and in March 2024 my hubbie was dx with prostate cancer. We both became caregivers for each other. Now I am facing heart surgery. We are in our 80'S and we just want life to be back to normal. Our daughter also passed away during this time. It was her heart. Bless you for sharing your loving story.❤

Bless you and your husband

I’m 76 and my partner (47 years together thus far) was fell and now is in the ICU with a severe traumatic brain injury. He’s able to talk now but very confused, with an uncertain prognosis. I’m devastated. I’m mentioning this because I empathize with you and your husband, especially with your statement that you just want life to be back to normal. I just want to be back one week, before his and my world changed so terribly. Wishing you both all the best. And I’m so very sorry for your loss of your daughter.

[@ThePatientStory]

we are so sorry your family has been so impacted by cancer :(

[@DELx999]

Your Daughter? Yikes. Sorry to hear. She didn't take the V axx did she?

[@Ceerads]

@@DELx999 Stop it.

[@mrdanielleebrown]

In such a superficial world, I look at these stories, and I really appreciate true love and commitment. You both married well, evident by your commitment. I know a person whose wife left him when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Marry well and right. You never know what life will bring.

[@ThePatientStory]

we love this comment ♥

[@hazeleyes449]

I think my husband would do the same if I ever was diagnosed with cancer. He’ll be there at first, but then would get tired of me being sick.

[@ColleenC-n5v]

What a moving tribute this has been to your great love and devotion to your dear wife and son. God bless you all as the hoped-for healing continues.💜✝☮✝💜

My question always is, who cares for the caregivers? Thank you for sharing your experience ❤

[@ThePatientStory]

so important to lean on each other and your extended family, friends and community!

[@joanainacio246]

Life give the caregivers health to be. Its needed. Its difficult but its needed

[@lauramatsuyama9742]

I can’t express how your words have hit me. I’ve also been holding back from seeing the doctor as if what I’m going through isn’t important enough or as important as cancer. Cancer is such a thief.. robbing is of living. Even when there is no evidence of disease (NED) I had to force myself to live in the moment but also Plan for the future. I also wanted to refrain from saying I am his caregiver as that felt negative to me. I still wanted to be his lover and friend and all the things that made us before the cancer.. Thank you so much for sharing. Blessings

[@ThePatientStory]

thank you for listening to their story :)

I was diagnosed in 2018 with breast cancer. Since I have a heart condition most of the normal treatments were not an option but I knew in my gut I would not survive chemo and radiation. I prayed there would be better treatments come along but so far nothing that insurance covers will do what I need. I found out it has matastized into my bones while in the er for something unrelated. I don't know where to turn for a real chance of survival. I am humbled, maybe a bit nieve in just how hard it could become doing this on my own. I will ask for prayers that a miracle cure is found and I can take part in it. My name is Laura. I pray for everyone on these videos and in the chat that need help as well.

[@sabine8419]

Thank you for sharing. You describe the situation very well.

[@ThePatientStory]

he was a great caregiver!

God bless the whole family. 🙏🏼

God Bless you all. Thank you for sharing this heartfelt ongoing story. I'm praying for you all and sending love and warmth your way. Sir, you are a loving man, a loving dad. ♥️🤍💙

This video really speaks to me at this moment. My partner of forty-seven often turbulent years just had a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) through a fall. He’s still in the ICU, making incremental progress but with great uncertainty as to how much he’ll recover. I’m heartbroken. It gives me courage and hope, seeing what these two much younger people (Brooklynites like me, btw) have gone through and continue to go through. I wish all of you will have good health, continued artistic fulfillment, and happiness. I’m a breast cancer survivor, too (triple positive), twenty-five years post-dx. Yay, Brooklyn!!!!

[@ThePatientStory]

thank you for listening to their story!

[@FireAndRainGrace]

Thank you for sharing caregiver stories ❤️

[@One4JC2911]

Country singers Joey and Rory Feek- They filmed their lives for a blog Rory would write. Unbeknownst to them, Joey would be diagnosed with cancer... all so tenderly caught on film. Documentary: To Joey with Love. I love the idea of capturing every moment... you never know what treasures will spring forth from it.

Adoption is an amazing option. If she is still able to have a baby, please don’t don’t negate the option!!

[@ThePatientStory]

always a great option for couples who have gone through life altering treatments.

[@kathykay6602]

A man will never know how a woman feels about motherhood. That does not diminish their importance in our lives and the lic]ves of our kids.

[@ThePatientStory]

that's right!

[@kathykay6602]

There are not support groups for men because most men do not want to talk especially about their feelinf]gs. Harsh reality.Sorry.We women know the benefits of talking and sharing our load with someone in similar situation. I wish you the best.

[@RustyShakleford1]

Kathy it's because dad's are struggling to connect with their sons its and epidemic. Men can speak and share and do want to we have been let down by our dad's. Women seem to talk way more at school while guys are practicing sports 😂

[@deeniemcqueen]

This is not true. There are more and more support groups starting up all the time for men who are caregivers or bereaved and they are very well attended. When men are given the chance to share and support, they do.

[@ThePatientStory]

these support groups do exist- you just have to search hard for them!

[@Flexy98658]

Is his wife died?

[@reginarassi4169]

Why can't she have another child?

[@kathykay6602]

The worst thing you can do is to feel sorry for yourself. You must be kind to yourself but never feel sorry and ask Why me? Life throws a lot of curve balls...

[@ThePatientStory]

you're not wrong. thank you!

[@Nancy-w1f]

23 minutes for the husband? At least show the wife.

Anna's story published on our channel in October. Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJewqIB9adRlp7s :)

[@Dymphna06]

Amazing husband and father. He is able to express his feelings and share. They are lucky to have him. ❤

[@maureenfitzgerald1895]

Spouses/Partners need support and sharing and are often suffering invisibly. I watched my brother-in-law suffer so deeply sharing my sisters cancer journey and death. It’s brutal. This is not an either or support journey. Everyone who has been touched by cancer needs support. Spouses need so much help

[@swannyriver75]

Rude so rude 😊

[@laurafleming7408]

They did. Pay attention.
