I am sorry to hear about your wife's suffering. The best support I can think of is just to be there emotionally and mentally for her. I must ask about her medications, is she getting adequate coverage. Does she see a pain managment dr? Have they tried any treatments? I know it is hard on my husband when he wants to go and I can't. My husband says try and get out as much as you can. It will make you both feel better. I know for me I needed an antidepressent to get over the daily crying, then I felt like doing more. Again I am sorry.

I don't know what to do. If I reach out to comfort her, it hurts her more. If I hug her, it makes it worse. I don't mean to sound selfish but I miss my wife. I hate to see her suffer like this.
