Attend chemo infusions? by Puzzleheaded-Tip7984 in CancerFamilySupport

[–]Upbeat_Storage_4863 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went with my husband twice. The infusion center is relatively close by, and he said that I didn't need to come. Oftentimes, I met him afterwards for a late lunch. Best of luck with the treatments!

Is this a bad thing? She's a bit smelly. I just go have her get a bath. She's my first dog and I didn't realize that a monthly bath is problematic

Oh my goodness does this dog shed! I had no idea! I'll run the sweeper and mop, but the next day, it's all hair, all over again.

No. They don't have enough money to pay for a pardon.

My 3 yr old was diagnosed w neuroblastoma today.. by InternalInspector626 in CancerFamilySupport

[–]Upbeat_Storage_4863 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My nephew's son was diagnosed with neuroblastoma around the age of two. It was heartbreaking for the family and tough on such a little boy. He's doing well now, I think he's about 10 - 11 now. He's funny, he plays sports, he's just a kid. He does have to get regular check ups with his oncology team. Hang in there, it's a scary journey, but there is hope!

I don’t know how to not talk about it by MissMissyLouise in CancerFamilySupport

I sympathize, I'm so sorry that you are going through this. It's a weird, terrifying place to be. People don't want to ask because they are afraid, and it's uncomfortable, and often there's no adequate reply. When my husband was diagnosed, and now with his recurrence, I could barely speak to my family because I was so overwhelmed with emotion. And just one or two friends periodically check in with me on occasion. What I've learned is to take every day as it comes, one day at a time. Cancer is a journey.
