My oldest daughter and I have drawn up a schedule. My husband's input has been zero. We are 'cancered out' already. No interest or input on his behalf so it seems.
Atm we have chemo appts in the morning and rads in late afternoon. Can someone tell me whether it's better to have all in one hit or having a break between appts? The reason I'm asking is what is mentally, psychologically more feasible. Given we have to travel to two different hospitals for treatment.
