So nice to meet you, too.
I know I have a tendency to "ramble..." and these people on here have been my "rock."
I swear, I don't know what I would've done without them. You can tell by how many posts I've written, I was scared TO DEATH!...But, through prayers and inspiration and support...I'm turning the corner, so to speak. Nice to have you onboard.
Cancer is scary, but just about every disease, really, is. You'll get through this. You sound like wonderful support for your husband. My husband was great with me, too....although he fell short in the "domestic" area. Through chemo & radiation, I still had to do the cleaning & cooking....but, sometimes I think it's good to "make" yourself do things. Life doesn't stop, does it?---For instance, I just went shopping awhile ago,(basically for exercise) and I feel better for it. I'm still battling some demons, but nothing like last year. I've had quite a few complications from chemo and radiation, but I can deal with it.
And, I'm sure you know, but a positive, upbeat attitude that you're going to "beat this," is better than ANY drug in the world, for both you, and your husband---especially him, of course. I faltered at times, but usually got back on track after awhile. Like I said, this forum helped immensely. I made sure I surrounded myself with upbeat, positive people, too. I actually had to "x" some "so-called" downer-type friends.
I'm still basking in my "cancer-free" diagnosis yesterday. I had my CT scan on Monday and was "holding my breath." I'm still suffering from fatigue and low-grade fevers, which no one (nurse & doc) really seems to be too alarmed about. They said yesterday, to continue what I'm doing---which is forging forward....taking my med's & trying to get "back in the saddle" of Life.
You & your husband are in my prayers.

P.S. Thank you for the compliment. That makes me feel great!
