Coping with life's difficulties successfully is all about attitude. I applaud you and your DHs wonderful attitude. God bless you both during this time. I pray He comforts you and never stops embracing you.

Sounds like something I might say to my DH.

Sending best wishes and prayers that he continues to battle this for as long as he can. And for you to keep your positive attitude.

*Hugs to You* and I think it's great that you two keep your humor. They say laughter is the best medicine. ;)

ditto!! Where I went to have my chemo.. all the nurses did every thing they would to make you laugh. They said it is the best medicine that they would give for free. :P :P

First, I am so sorry about you and your DH going through this, and can totally understand the phone calls (we were told Dad wouldn't survive his bout with cancer and he had only six weeks to live, he lived for 2 1/2 years before something else took him on his new journey). And the humorous side, I tell my DH all the time that as soon as he goes, I will be moving my Mid-arm into the living room to expand that as my sewing area, and take the silly TV into my current sewing room. He asks me when he should move out into his shop .....

My favorite Mary Englebreit coffee mug has the slogan "She who laughs, lasts."

That philosophy has helped our family through a decade of medically-intense living.

Sounds like you and your DH got that memo too.
