My bestfriend, my soulmate has lung cancer.

My fiance was diagnosed with cancer in April. He has been having problems with his motor skills and after I noticed it I made a doctors appointment for him. He was having a hard time with coordination of his right arm and leg and I was pretty scared when I noticed. He went to work the day of the doctor appointment and later that evening I get a call from his cell phone. He was at the ER and apparently he had fell at work and could not get back up. He told me also he needed to tell me something important and wanted to wait until I got to the ER. I told him to tell me because if it was bad I didn't know how I was going to take it. He told me that they did a scan of his head and found a mass in his brain. I was shocked and couldn't think of much to say to him when I was on the phone. His mother was as upset and her and I rode together to the ER. When we got there he was in a bed and asleep and after a long time in the ER they moved him to ICU. After a failed attempt at a MRI(he threw up) they decided to do a biopsy which was a scary situation for all involved, mainly because they were cutting into his brain. After several days in ICU and general hospital and many scans and tests they told us what it was. They had found cancer in his lung that had spread to his brain. he has been through radiation treatment and chemotherapy and so far he has done awesome with both. He has had little sickness or side effects and we are having his first scan after chemotherapy tommorow. We have been together almost four years and he is the love of my life. I am shocked because he is only 32 and me personally I question if I am strong enough to go through this with him because I want to be.
