Lisa, Ive been thinking of your situation. Please line up some friends to help drive you. Nobody gets thru this alone. I had very limited help and struggled. It was very very difficult getting thru it. Just keeping the meds straight can be a job in itself. Then you need to remember to eat and how much you drank for the day. I dont want to make you afraid, but you will need some assistance. Luckily you have found OCF to help guide you thru.
