Welcome, Can. First, take a deep breath. This is a long journey you are beginning, and you don't want to spend all your energy just worrying up front. Many of us have come out the other side smiling, and you can too. It truly is a one day at a time thing, and looking at it that way makes it easier. There were times right after my surgery and during radiation and chemo that I could not have driven myself. Although my husband was at hand to do this, I know that if you need transportation, there are several avenues you can explore. The American Cancer Society in your area would be a good place to begin. In my small town, members of the Elks volunteer to transport people to the "big city" for treatment. A couple of phone calls ought to set your mind at ease about that. When you finalize your treatment plan, come back and let us know. There will surely be many people who have had exactly the same procedures, and can tell you precisely what to expect, every step of the way. That is the gift I was given when I came here, and that allowed me to proceed without wasting any energy on fear. I could then concentrate on healing. Knowledge is truly power in this situation. Hang in there! You will come though this life adventure okay.
