Loss my wife to uterine cancer. (carcinoma sarcoma)

teejames

my wife was a 48 year old school teacher in the Orlando Florida area as she passed away after only a 6 month battle that took her from her family and I. We were torn on treatment options but her family and friends convinced her to do the traditional chemo and radiation that only forced the cancer to spread and metastasis. I’m lost for words and so angry at our corrupted systems in place that only care about profitability that really is crimes against humanity in my opinion.

teejames, I am so sorry for your loss. Those words can't even begin to help you with the pain and anger you feel. I appreciate you having come here to share with us about your beloved and hope you, your family and friends, can do something to honor her as you hold your memories close. I am so sorry.

It’s always so heartbreaking when anyone loses their life to cancer. But it’s especially difficult when a younger woman like your wife succumbs to a disease that more often strikes later in life.

I hope that more research or new findings may someday explain why I survived carcinosarcoma after having conventional surgery, chemo and radiation, when dear ladies like your wife did not. But I know that those future findings will mean little to those like you who are left behind now.

We all grieve in our own ways and in our own time. Your grief is your own, but I pray those around you can offer some small measure of solace for you now during this time of immense loss. My thoughts are with you too.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Wishing you and your family peace as you go through your grieving process.

The treatment options are changing in endometrial and uterine cancers, but not fast enough. When you feel strong enough, support research. It's impowering.

Best wishes to you, your friends, and your family during this difficult time.

I'm so tremendously sad to hear about the loss of your dear wife. When I was furious about my cancer diagnosis and so depressed and mentally off-balance I could barely function, oddly—I found jumping on a trampoline to be helpful. There are no words. I can feel your grief from the west coast, and wish I could give you a hug. You've been through hell. I know you did everything you could do. Know that.

Teejames, I too am so sorry for your wife’s passing.
You understand only too well the deep grief cancer brings into our lives. Deepest sympathy.
My mother and I had the same stage and grade of uterine cancer 4 years apart. My mother died and I survived. There is no reason nor rational.
