I'd be devastated. My husband is my best friend. I would take time off work and spend every moment possible with him making memories and just be together.0

I have no clue what I would do.0

This is serious. To a degree. I posted in the chit-chat section because it didn't pertain to anything weight-related.
I'm curious as to if anyone else would handle it the way my husband did when they told him this news. 3.5 years ago. Clearly, i did not die. They were wrong.0 -
I'd be crushed, but keep it inside so he could get the full deal of what's left. I'd put myself into debt for anything he wanted.
Edited to add: I'm glad that you didn't die!0 -
what did he do??0

well real or not its not something to joke about
you go through something like that and then laugh about it
sorry but i dont find this funny at all0 -
I actually have given this some thought. I would want to be strong because obviously miracles do happen but I fear I would fall apart. I guess honesty is better than naivety.0
-
Honestly, I would be completely 100% heart broken. I wouldn't leave his side for anything. I would spend every moment with him and want our family to gather round and just enjoy each other.
SO, then tell us what did your husband do?0 -
I'm pretty sure I would settle into a depression so deep I would never return. I likely wouldn't eat, sleep, or let him out of my sight..... My guy is my best friend, and has been for over half my life...i've never been with anyone else and I'm totally happy with that....I just hope I never hear those words, the ambulance trip on xmas eve with him shook me badly enough0

When you've been through it, you can judge me for this. K? thanks.0 -
I do not know what I would do. But I like to be able to let him go with all my love, my respect and my appreciation for being the most wonderful person I have ever been blessed to be a part of. I cannot type this without wiping a tear.0

I'm so sorry you had to have that scare! Hope things are looking up for him now!!0 -
I am glad that the doctors were wrong! and I am curious how your husband reacted that you are asking the question.
When my father was told he was going to die, we moved in to the hospice to spend as much time as we could with him and make sure that he was comfortable. It was rough, but the staff didn't mind having extra people around. I think they were used to it. He had been ill for a while. We weren't expecting a different outcome.0
