Hi Curly, my husband completed treatment one month ago. His med onc told him that he would not have the energy to work through chemo-radiation. As luck would have it, my husband was able to work almost all the way though, missing only one week when he was not in hopsital. I do think it helped him a lot emotionally to remain working. I was fine with it, as long as he took the time to rest when tired, and do all the necessary exercises, lotions, hydration and nutrition...which take more time than you think they would.

My husband has a desk job, making it easier to stay working. He was also lucky not to have any problems with "chemo" brain. Very much agree with what Christine said, staying ahead on the nutrition curve was essential, both so he had the energy to work and to make it through treatment.
