Love would not have to ask.
I'm going to give you the best advice you will ever get from the Internet.
You need to stop preaching. Stop it now. Train wrecks aren't qualified.
Stop reading books. Get off the Web. Join a church. Submit to its authority. Get into counseling.
Grow up. Be a man.
Can you not do anything yourself.
Have you ever heard of a talking rabbit?
Thanks Ann. I will consider this.
No, but it seems I've found a typing dodo.
I think that you should stop seeking advice about things like this from strangers on Internet forums.
The sentiment should come from a loving husband's heart, or at minimum from a sense of compassion.
Flowers would also be a good touch. Nice ones, not Grade A cheap stuff.
Well, annsni has already said what I was going to say. I'll only reiterate what she said about only tell her you are praying for her if you really are.
I would add - in trying to decide what to say to her, how did you decide on the words to speak to her when you were dating and when you were married? It's got to come from your heart and not ours.
One more thing. You said that her cancer was pretty bad and had spread to other organs. I'm not sure that a simple "get well" card is appropriate. Maybe a "thinking of you" card would be better. But then again, you are the only one who knows her condition.
Will she talk to you on the phone? Can you offer to drive her to some of her treatments?

Maybe not......Maybe that is the problem. None of us here can properly diagnose the problem(s). He says he lives in the Denver area. Do we have any brothers out there he could meet with & perhaps partner with?
A Chrismas arrangement....Red Roses perhaps w/ babys breath----I love you, I miss you, I want to be with you.....you are the love of my life, I'm sorry...please forgive me. That kinda stuff. You have to transform yourself also Evan & you have to display how you have changed. That I don't know how your going to do it but its up to you to "Pull the rabbit outa your hat" LOL!
Seriously though, if you know....is she undergoing kemo or radiation treatments? If so, she is going to be very weak. Being with her during those treatments, getting her water & food, maybe even cooking a meal......this is going to be hard Evan but being there might just change the full spectrim of things (for the both of you). All Im going to say, and Ive gone through some rough times with my wife, is that you have to get to a place where you not only care for her---but that you cherish her. (REALLY)
Convince yourself of that & then follow suit and convince her of that! That is what God wants, for you two separate people to become "One In Christ"...and I sincerely hope & pray for you and her.
OPPS Last phrase should have said - .....but with the amount of hours -that you work - did you really spend...
Tell her that you are sorry fo the wrong that you did while married to her, that you are seeking her best, and pray that she gets healed in all areas needed to be from the Lord now...
