Hi, Vicki and Barb.
As a newcomer to the world of being the primary caregiver to the person you love most in the world, I've been wondering, too, how anyone copes with all that looks to be looming in the future. Since the words "a-typical cells" were read to us from the biopsy report in June, I had been unable to sleep a full night. Tom's GP gave me a prescription for Xanax to use as needed, and I do take one almost every weeknight. I have my annual gyn appt on Monday, and I was going to ask him for a recommendation on what to I could take and still function during my day-time job -which has been a real challenge. I'll be sure to look into the Lexapro before I talk to him.
Barb, it sounds like you are a living angel, and I am sure your family loves you to pieces. Do you know if there was a particular cause for the healing difficulties for your husband's neck? Is he doing well now? God bless both of you.
