Even if he did say it as a joke it's still a horrible and inappropriate cold thing to say. Best of luck OP.

I can agree with him, he's getting straight to the end of it so it's taken care of, though he could have said it a bit nicer. At least he sounds like he's trying to spend the rest of your days with you?

That's still not something you bring up when it's something you've just found out. In a few days it should absolutely be talked about, but not immediately. OP isn't going to suddenly drop dead.

Maybe he just has a horrible sense of humor? If he's serious you should seriously talk to him about how rude that sounds.

Yeah, I'm going with incredibly dark sense of humor too. All other alternatives are way more horrible.

This sounds a bit like something I would say after my brain reset from the initial shock.

I hope it truly isn't terminal, OP. But either way, that was a terribly insensitive thing for him to say. I would want to trick him into thinking he has cancer to, and see how his attitude changes...but that's just because I'm a terrible person.

I hope you slapped the shit out of him for that. That was just plain wrong of him. And you can beat cancer OP. Never go down without a fight!

To all the people that are whining in the comments because "it's insensitive, it's wrong, it's nothing to joke about" or saying "divorce him" That's extremely stupid. OP, there's nothing wrong with what he said. If I found out I possibly had cancer, and told my s/o and she said something like this, I'd start laughing. Of course she's not serious, and wants to lighten the situation, plus, you don't for sure have cancer. I had an EXTREMELY close friend who had the possibility of having cancer, and we joked like this all the way up until we found out he didn't have cancer. If you actually had cancer, instead of the possibility of having cancer, and he said something like this, THEN It'd be a wrong, insensitive, horrible thing to say. I'm sure he's just very confident you don't have it, and/or he's trying to push the thought out of his head by making jokes. But if it really bothers you, talk to him about it. Ask him if he was serious, ask him what if you actually do have cancer.

Wow, that's cold! I hope it was a joke and might have been intended to help lighten the mood but he must have expected you might not have a sense of humour about that. Hope it turns out to be just a scare.
