Hi Andrew, well first of all i am so sorry to read you and your wifes story, and the treatment you and your wife have recieved. BUT there is support out there - this is where this great bunch of men and women on here come in, we have ladies on here with all sorts of experience of the journey of bc, and also carers. Have you received the My Journey Kit from BCNA, if not please register for it on this site, it is a great package for BC and carers, family and friends, it is all done with people who have made the journey, including a cd from partners/carers, it is all put together in a way we can all understand, also BCNA have forums in different areas, having just attended one, i would say to anyone, go along and join them, once again the professional speakers as well as the bcna abasadors, speak and answer questions in a language we can understand, is there a support group near you? i can understand why your wife feels there is nobody out there to help her, but if she could just talk to others who have been down the road, i am sure she and you would benefit. Please let your wife know, by even joining us on here, she just may get something from it. Meanwhile please keep comming back to us, and like we all say, by helping yourself, you can help others, please feel free to add me to your contact list. Speak soon Take Care Moira X
