My husband has terminal lung cancer, and does not talk. Basically since 2009 when first diagnosed, and now has metastasized to membrane outside the lung. It is extremely difficult on me emotionally. Especially since I lost a fiancé in the past to cancer, and many others. He just ignores my feelings, and never replies or talks. Is there any websites, or even call centers where I can talk to someone that you can suggest.

Our oncologist's office is
Our oncologist's office is staffed with a social worker, who has all sorts of resources. And support groups. Perhaps you could see if there is something similar?

Thanks Tom, ours too offers
Thanks Tom, ours too offers support group meetings which are difficult to go to. I'm looking for one online or with a call center that specifically is for caregivers and spouses.

You're at a pretty good site right now. There is probably someone always lurking that has experienced what you and your spouse are going thru. Just ask and I'll bet you will get all kinds of support but I will add its not designed to be an emotional support blog. I think other professionals are better qualified to address those issues, but if you need advice about symptoms, treatments, and latest research this is the place to be.
