Isolation
So my biggest frustration right now is Chris is isolating himself from the world. Outside of me and the kids the only people he is allowing to visit is his parents. I have had his friends from work, his brothers, and members of our parish all wanting to come and he won't allow any of them to see him. I don't know how to convince him to visit with anyone. He has locked himself away in our room and hardly gets out of bed even though the doctor has told him he needs to get out of bed even if its to just sit in the recliner. He also won't eat any of the healthy food I try to make for him. Instead he chooses junk food. I know its good that he is just eating but its still hard when I want to try to fight this disease from all angles.
Since his cancer is considered terminal, I have asked him to do family pictures with us and also to do a video diary for each of the kids which he also won't do. I know how important these things will be for the kids as they get older and it upsets me that he won't do this for him.
I know he is going through so much right now with the pain and with his own acceptance of everything but it is so hard to be on the healthy side of it all because we just want to do it all. I don't know how much time I have left with him, but I know he is going downhill fast and it is so hard to watch!
