Hi - John withdrew quite a bit during treatment. There were days he couldn't and sometimes wouldn't speak at all. It is a living hell, there's no way around it- but the time does pass and it eventually is behind you.
John could hardly continue just before he reached the halfway mark and then his two younger sisters arrived for 10 days from Australia ( to Canada) and it seemed to somehow take his mind off the misery. Not completely, but enough that it seemed to give him a second wind. Is there any other family member or friend who might lift his spirits if they dropped by for even a few days?
Mary
