How Husbands Cope It’s a “guy thing” Bobbit Suntay The Carewell Community The Cancer Resource and Wellness Community

How husbands cope “I did it, myyyyyy wayyyy…” Personal and unique No “best way” No “rulebook or manual” No “roadmap or guide” Different strokes for different folks

Don’t be a Hero! You can’t do it all alone Ask for help/Seek out help Counseling/Support Group Relief from school/work Reach out to family and friends

Communicate… Constantly Clearly Accurately Honestly Compassionately …with the person ill with cancer …with loved ones and friends

Your “new normal” Explore it Establish it Live it Do your best… …believe you are doing your best

Care for yourself “Put your oxygen mask and life vest on before assisting others” Getting sick and/or burnt out makes things harder You need to be at your best (or as close to it) in order to care well

Let go and let God Be in “the now” – don’t look back and regret, don’t worry too far ahead. Name your fears and face them Forgive See God’s hand at work Trust that your own way of coping will see you through

Don’t rush to be “OK” Let things run their course “Grace abounds the long way around” “Don’t rush to solve the problem; allow the problem to solve you” There are no schedules and timetables Trust the process Don’t allow “adaptive” coping to become “maladaptive”
