My Husband Wants A Divorce

My husband got diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer... It has been a terrible few months. I'm dying on the inside watching the love of my life wither away... Last night he sat me down... He handed me divorce papers. I started crying and was so confused. He told me he's not gonna make me suffer anymore... Watching him slowly die. He told me I'm gonna sign this paper, find love, and have beautiful children. He told me I'm not gonna sit here dying with him. He said he knows I'm dying on the inside and it breaks him. He wants to let me go and go through alone. He told me he's fine dying alone as long I'm happy. He started crying and I was crying. How do you even respond to that. This is the worst moment of my life....

Btw I don't want a divorce at all. I'm just so sad he felt he had to do all this. IDK what to say to talk some sense into him. He keeps telling me it's best for me to go. I'm not doing that of course
