Dear Cynde, Being a caregiver to a loved one with late-stage cancer is not easy. Have you considered any in-person support groups for both of you? Counselling is often underutilized. Also, I wanted to echo Tom's words that there are often options every step of the way. So many with stage IV lung cancer are living much longer, happier lives than we could have imagined 10 years ago. If you use Twitter, you will find many writing online at #lcsm. If possible, try to stay aware of the clinical trials that may be available - they often offer great care. Kind Regards, I Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
