I live with my husband who has a mind of a 4 year old and don't understand most things that you are talking to him about, So I'm going to be on my own, I'm going to have to take care of myself. I can get someone to come out twice a week and get a ride to treatments, I'm scared to dead, I been fighting to get a pet scan set up, that the cancer doctor wanted before my next appointment (sept 2nd.) they only do them on Sat. the 23rd just passed and the 30th. is the labor day weekend. I have called more then once and they told me I had to wait till closer to my appointment...now what, cancer doctor only comes in once a week. If I cannot even get an appointment set up how in the world an I going to do this. How an I going to take care of husband meds and make sure he eats and take care of a peg, when I'm sick and week from radiation and chemo? can this be done, with little help, if someone don't cook for husband, he will live on candy and jelly sandwhiches. he hides food or gives it to the dog. my house is a mess and I just want to go climb in bed and forget about it. I sleep about 4 hours a night and its getting me down. sorry just needed to vent.


cancer surgery on July 7th. 2008, I'm now a survivor. cancer free for now. 39 radiation, and 8 chemo treatments.
