I agree with everything said so far. I tried to come in the office as much as I could but that only consisted of a couple of hours a day. Car rides made me sick and there is no way I could have driven that many miles. I would say try to do what you can but remember your health is more important. You will need to ensure you keep eating and be able to rest when needed. I think working will help keep your mind from thinking about cancer but just have a plan for those days you can't work. Good luck!
