Kerry, if it is not all gone, then you will keep fighting-that's what we are doing. Probably a different chemo drug and possibly more surgery[ John has had 2 major surgeries in 10 months.] I don't mean to scare you, but it does relate to your letting your extended families know that you and your family will need active support for the next year. We'll pray that Stephen is all clear when his scans are done, but he will not be "all well" by then. It will take a while for him to recoup from the rad tx. and the chemo. I think you should prepare for ,at the very least, 6 to 8 mo. of concentrated care giving after his treatments are over. Is your 3yr old in daycare? I assume the 5 yr. old is in kindergarten. I used to be a preschool teacher. I promise you that if you can give them loving attention for a few hours in the evening and tuck them in, they will survive this period. It WILL be hard on them if you are totally stressed all the time. Here is a suggestion for you:#1. make a list of all the things you are in charge of right now,#2. then prioritize them, #3. then see what you can delegate to someone else OR just put into a "later file" #4.If your final list of thing you have to do is too long-start again and reprioritize. Get it down to a manageable scenerio[i.e. one that saves your sanity] If you need some further nudges from this 65 yr. old warrier-e-mail me and I will call you. Amy
