Hi Everyone,
Happy New Year! This time last year Bob and I along with 3 other couples were awaiting the arrival of a limo to take us out on a special New Year's Eve "night on the town" This year, Bob is in bed and I have many new friends from the OCF forum. My question for you is this: How much time should I plan to take off towards the end of his treatment. He is only 2 weeks into it . Chemo makes him tired about 36 hours after treatment. Radiation is not too bad yet. He is just beginning to get some soreness in his mouth. I know everyone is different, but I need to plan ahead. I am a teacher and need to prepare for when I'm off. I had planned on taking the last 2-3 weeks of his treatment off. My principal and co workers are wonderful and I have months of sick leave myself. I would like to know from those who have been through this, how much care and support will Bob need? He is being brave and says I don't need to be home with him, but I know otherwise.
