Debra,
I lived alone during treatment and recovery although I had a mother, girlfriend , sister and many friends nearby. I found no difficulty at all in taking care of myself at home and most of the time even drove myself to and from treatments and Dr. visits as well.

Having said that, I still mostly sat around and read, watched TV or slept and, when I returned to work, only came in for short days and did not take on anything too challenging. I did get a little depressed for a short while after treatment ended. The world can look a little gloomy when you are not sure if you have a future and all that you have to look forward to is your next tube feeding. However I turned it around by finding a support group, taking a two mile walk every day, making sure that a friends would come to visit, and running a short errand every day, even if it was nothing more than going to Walgreen's or to the grocery store or book store.
In a short while I felt much better. Best of luck.
