How do i emotionally handle it when it terribly broke my heart to hear my significant other humbly ask the oncologist to, "please make me better"?

A cancer support: group may be helpful. You may find a referral at your hospital or through your doc. Research calls this "social oncology" and it has positive outcomes for many. Some have difficulty dealing w/the losses that may occur w/some members. Peace and good health.

Simply be there: The best thing you can do is simply be there at your partner's side. Whatever she needs be quick to help out and slow to anger. She will be scared, hold her. Try to take things moment by moment, day by day. Nothing will mean more to her than knowing she is not alone on her journey and will always have you by her side.
