Pain hits hard

My partner and I were never prepared,
for what the specialist doctor said, 
We hoped the chemo worked but dread,
to tell you that the cancer spread, 
Our palative nurse tried to dull the pain, 
But time after time it was bad news again, 
I just had enough of the pain being raw, 
My impulse was to punch the sitting room door, 
I needed some space to digest the bad news, 
My love of my life I was soon to lose,
How do you deal with such a dialema, 
Love will grow strong even when not together.
