What to do if my spouse do not want leukemia treated?

Health Description
Health Consultation Description: I was shocked, I cried, I looked for information on the illness and found some facts about it. I shared this information with him. He promptly told me that he would refuse all treatment. Other than crying and waiting, what else can I do?

Condition analysis:
When someone you love has leukemia and is refusing treatment, it's tough to understand, especially with the many treatment options that exist.

You may feel powerless, but instead,  congratulate yourself for already being appropriately reactive. You are showing you care by gathering information and sharing it with him.

These are good first steps. You'll want him to make an educated decision, and you'll want to give him time to make it.  This is important, because he may change his mind when he sees his options. If he does, let him and support him the way he wants you to (doctor appointments, running errands, physically tending him, etc.).

If he doesn't change his mind -- and this is his decision, remember -- support him then too. In fact, he will need you more if this is the case (besides physical tending there will be tying up loose ends, resolving conflicts, planning for end of life). Many people find peace with a cancer diagnosis and view it as a release. You might consider having a conversation about this with him, which would help you to understand his position.

Instructions:
Green Tea: Green tea is one of the safest and effective herbal treatments for leukemia. Catechin, the main component of green tea prevents proliferation of leukemia cells and induces apoptosis of the leukemia cells. Better results can be obtained by combining green tea with turmeric.
