Welcome to OCF! You are in the right place to get lots of info and support. I was kike you, cancer didnt fit into my life but somehow I had to put everything on hold and deal with it anyway. You will get thru this! It wont be easy, but you can do it!

As far as your children go, you have your hands full. Every single time someone offers to help, write down their name and all contact info in a notebook. Tell them you will let them know when the time comes what they can do. Even something as simple as picking up a pizza or taking the kids out for ice cream could be a big deal. There will be a million little things that people can do to help out, cook a meal for your family, take the boys to the movies, do a load of laundry, pick up medications or even making sure the homework is finished will be helpful.

Being treated at a cancer center is the best choice. There they will treat many similar cases per year. A whole team of specialists will get together and discuss how to best treat you.

Dont worry about the lingo, you will pick it up and be talking 'medical' in no time. Best wishes with everything!
