I appreciate your frankness-- these are difficult subjecte.

Are you SURE this hurts his feelings? I get the idea that he wants y'all's (yes, that is a real word) life to be as normal as possible. You don't have to stick together every single minute... if both of you can get away and do the things you would normally be doing if the cancer weren't in the picture, there's nothing wrong with that. Why WOULD you want to think of the cancer every single minute? Your desire to get away from thinking about the disease does not mean you are being disloyal to IC, kwim?
