Cancer RECOVERY leading to divorce...
I am a devoted husband of 14 years. We have had a VERY, VERY happy marriage. My wife battled breast cancer throughout almost all of 2011 and into 2012. I battled it with her, every step of the way.

How do I do this
So I know my husband is dying, I'm shocked by how fast this seems to have come. He was so healthy for the past three years, handled the chemo so well, I told myself I wasn't hoping for a cure, but obviously I was hoping for something of that nature.
