    Hive..this is officially my last post. I won't be checking for responses, but I felt that I wouldn't be doing justice to all of the help that I have gotten here if I didn't post something. FI and I are no longer getting married. There was no infidelity or fights...just a stubborn will that I can't seem to counter no matter what I say. 

    FI's cancer is back...and this time, the Dr's don't think that they can treat it. This will be the third time during our 4 and a half years together that FI has developed stomach cancer. Because this time is so much worse than other times, FI doesn't think that it's fair to me to get married and nothing I say will change his opinion. He feels he is doing what's best for me and that's that. We found out yesterday and our wedding is...was...May 14th. 

    I just want to thank the hive for the advice, the DIY ideas, the debates (Mike Vick anyone?), the funny stories, and all of the beautiful wedding pics that gave me so much inspiration in planning my sister's wedding that took place last year, and mine that will never take place.

    When I get the strength, I have tons of stuff for sale that I will be posting some time or another. Right now I can't bear to look at any of it. 

    Please keep FI and I in your prayers as he gears up for the fight of his life. God Bless all of you, and I wish all of you the best.

    Jamaica

    I'm so sorry. The diagnosis is still so new, I hope that once the shock wears off you two can come to a decision about this that you are both okay with. I'll keep your SO in my thoughts.

    This just nearly broke my heart.  Try to enjoy every minute you have left with him whether it is as husband and wife or not.  Just remember he's trying to do what's best for you, he isn't trying to hurt you in any way! ((hugs))

    @JamaicaBride: I know that it says you won't be checking for replies, however being a cancer survivor myself, and having it come back 5 times, I understand why he is doing what he is doing. I know that it's hard to understand, but at some point you feel like you need to protect the one's that you love, and sometimes it's by pushing them away :/ I did this too during that period in my life. It may seem stubborn, but with everything up in the air for him, there's very few things he can control, protecting you is still one of them (even though it's not really protecting you it's more hurting you, but he isn't looking at it that way) I wish you the best and will keep you both in my thoughts.

    *hugs*

    i had the same problem with my BF, he was given 3months to live, was going to die and it was "better for me" if he left and all that crap

    but i think i annoyed him so much he just gave in because he knows im just as stubborn as he is! i do know though that hes coming from a good place, even if it hurts you he doesnt mean to

    if ye love each other nothing else matters.

    btw my guy got 3months to live 1.5years ago, hes still going strong and better than ever, never forget, theres always hope *hugs* stay strong and positive because he needs you

    Oh sweetie. I don't even know what to say. I'm sorry doesn't seem to cover enough bases. What devastating heartbreaking horrible news. Like the others, I hope the doctors are wrong and that your FI pulls through this. Miracles do happen. I'm sending lots of love your way. Hold him close sweetie. xoxo :'(

    Oh no oh no oh no! I am so so so very sorry about this. As someone who has been personally touched by cancer, I can't say I know exactly what you are going through but I do feel your pain. I am so sorry about this. I hope you and your fiance will be able to handle this. I shall never forget all the help you have given me. Both on the boards and on the pm level. I'm so so sorry.
