I sure know the feeling as a caregiver. It's just an exhausting...wish I could do more to help my husband feeling. I had to use Xanax and Ambien and some Lexapro to make it thru. You guys are doing great. My Dan is just back to work 5 months post treatment. I got layed off three weeks into Dan's treatment which turned out to be quite a blessing. I couldn't have worked full time during all the treatment days. And Dan wasn't sleeping much at nite and many nites I didn't sleep at all...too much to think about. Anyway, I sure know where you are coming from. As he feels better, so will you, or at least that is how it has been with me.
Take care and God bless,
Debbie
