Caregiver in long-term relationship feels unseen while partner battling cancer centers conversations on himself.DEAR ABBY: My significant other of 16 years is fighting cancer.I am proud of his determination.I recently had an EKG, and my results weren't great.When I told him, he turned it right around to his own issues.Am I selfish for being upset about this?I have catered to him through it all, driven him to his appointments and waited on him hand and foot.I doubt you'll answer this post, but I'm submitting it anyway.-- FRUSTRATED IN MAINE DEAR FRUSTRATED: Oh, ye of little faith!No, you are not selfish.You are rightfully concerned about your own health as well as your significant other's and realize how centered on himself he is.What, if anything, you decide to do about this is up to you.But if you need someone to watch your back and are feeling a breeze back there, you might want to depend less on him.Sit down with him, have a serious chat and map out a strategy that's beneficial to you both.
