Hello Joanna72,

Welcome to the EmpowHER community. I am glad you reached out to us to share your story and seek support.

My advice is counseling for the entire family.

Your husband may be acting out toward your son because of his own fear and anger regarding his medical condition. f so, he needs help finding a positive way to cope with his situation.

Speaking as a mother, your first obligation is to your son. He does not deserve this. Is it possible for him to stay with his biological father for a while?

You need help finding a way to cope with your family situation. It will negatively impact your own health if this continues.

Speak with your internist for a referral to a counselor or family therapist.
A trusted clergy member may be another option.

Regards,
Maryann
