Wanda,
I understand how you feel. Now that my mom is gone I have NOTHING to do with my days while my sisters are in school (I'm 7 months pregnant so that will be changing soon!).

After mom finished radiation she was relieved, but was surprised at how long it took to recover. The worrying won't go away either. It will lessen with time. Just take the recovery time as slow as he needs and he will be back in his shop before you know it.

Whats next, is you will actually start thinking about yourself for a change!

Take a day for yourself!

Amy
