Debra,

I am almost 3 weeks post finishing treatment and I have worked for the last two weeks everyday for half a day. I have not found that I got worse after the treatment, but as others have said, everyone responds differently. I also had family here for the last 6 weeks to help out with our 5 month old and to help with housework. Do you have any family/friends who could move-in for awhile?
