Deborah,

I'm so sorry to hear your family is going through all of this. My husband Ron wound up in the hospital too during treatment, and like you, I was so scared I was going to lose him. But I'm relieved to say he is 10 months post treatment and doing good. Going through this treatment is tough, but it will get better, trust me. Hang in there. As Cathy said, there is so much help and support here. Best of luck. You will be in my prayers.
