Hi Wendy,

Until cancer I never saw my dad down a day in my life. It became necessary to talk to the doctors about anti-depressants to help with the depression. Talk to your husbands doctors and explain to them what is going on. There are medications that can help with the depression. I'm sure they can find something that works for him. Your husband has been through a lot and still has a ways to go.

Joy
