My 18 year old Fiancé has recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. I haven’t seen her since she was first diagnosed as she has been pursuing her career in America but later in the month she will be returning to Australia and we are planning on getting married. She means the world to me and I just don’t know if I will be able to cope with loosing her

First, my heart goes out to the two of you. Cancer is very unfair Mad .

Cancer can also be cofusing because of all the complexities. What type of cancer does she have? You say that it is "terminal"? What exactly does that mean? I don't mean for that question to offend you. There is a saying: "Life is terminal. Cancer just makes it harder." I do not know where I first heard that. But it is true.

Live life in the "now". Be with your fiance and know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.
