My husband has eight days of twice a day radiation left and I am falling apart at the seams. I've held it together pretty good till now. I think I had a mini nervous breakdown at Dana Faber today in the ladies room. I started to cry and these horrible sounds came out and I was shaking all over. They sent a chaplin in to see if I was o.k. My husband had just had yet another horrible vomiting episode right after his hydration infusion and I just lost it.{not in front of him). They keep tring different things for the nausea and nothing seems to help. Basically when he gets out of bed he vomits. So to top off my day, they loaded him up with Decadron{SP?} a steroid for the nausea. Well, we got home and my husband started acting completely crazy. He got very angry and short with me and accused me of having a power trip over this whole thing. He actually called his mother to come take him home. Long story short,he finally settled down and went to sleep. Has anyone had this experience with the steroids? I hope I can help him thru these next weeks, I really feel like I can't take anymore. And my three and five year old need me and I am in the hospital with Stephen evertday because I really have to be to keep on top of everything. How can I be there for everyone...I do have my parents helping but my kids need their Mom and my husband needs his wife. Thanks for listening, I don't mean to whine I just had a REALLY bad day...but sadly my husbands was worse.
