Debra,

Only 1.5 weeks to go and this is his first breakdown? That is wonderful! I think I had mine 2-3 weeks into a 7 week treatment.

It is really important now to take one day at a time. There might be some really bad days in the next 1.5 weeks as well as some so-so or even good days. For me, I will say that every day after the treatment ended was a good day. I had some days where I have been tired or sick, but all managable and I was just so glad to be done. Even the peg tube seemed much more managable after the radiation and chemo where over.

Best of luck to both of you during the next couple of weeks and feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions!

Sarah
