End of life care

Hi guys I know this isn't something that we like to think about but due to a couple of losses this year and a cancer scare involving my husband. I depend on my husband for care something he has always been more than happy to do. However what happens when/if he dies? I have no money to fund my care and don't want any of my children to take on full time care of their mother. I had friends who promised they would always be by my side and have been let down by them both. My husband is a decade older than me and every year that passes I am more and more scared of what will be .. I hate this disease, I hate how dependent I've become....

I understand your feelings. My husband is 7 years older than me and he has stage 4 cancer so I worry all the time. He is doing well and the cancer is controlled, however it is always a worry for me.
