(OP) User ID: 19698721 United States 09/14/2015 10:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What to do after 7 months of Chemo? Quoting: kitkat31 My husband sleeps all day. Guys /Gals This is a new low for me. Not just the above, but we had a water line brake...floor ripped out, need new floor / dry wall / base boards / paint. How much are we to take? Usually very positive person here, but we have company coming that invited them selves. A hotel, and my dog which got kicked today cause hubby felt bad, is where I want to go. Thoughts? Godlikeproductions is all I have left...No need of money...just no where to turn. Any thoughts? Please. His sleeping all day is from the ass-kicking his body took from 7 months of chemo. Get a hobby during the day. Go be with friends during the day. GET A JOB?!!?!?!? It is going to take your husband the better part of a YEAR to get his energy back. And that's _if_ he's taking vitamins and minerals to build himself back up. Of course, you could take yourself to the local Home Depot or Lowes, tell them about the repairs needed at your house, and ask them how YOU can do it yourself! THAT would solve both problems . . . how to get your mind off things, stay out of your husband's way and get the house back in order. You are a very nice person...with great ideas...my husband is the best...spoiled me for 28 years...I hate to see him this way..it just hurts, he always been my rock. TY for the advise. XOXOXO!

It literally kicked his butt. Strongly recommend you find an in-house hobby so you are around. Best recommendation is to start an intensive study of the Bible, but with the help of a top notch commentary series: [link to www.gty.org] 33 volumes with a verse by verse exposition. Get one at a time and slowly work your way through. You will do your own soul invaluable benefit. You will do your husband a tremendous favor. |

beyond matrix User ID: 70326291 United States 09/14/2015 10:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Something good must be coming your way. You are facing all this because you can. In any cancer, the patient and the loved ones both go through hell. He suffers and you suffer. No vistors after chemo they bring germs and chemo destroys immunity. Write a list, take one at a time. Check them off as you get through them. Make,your loved one drinks tons of water to flush the,poison out. Buy some nice flowers. As soon as they wilt throw them out. Feed your loved one cereal. Any kind does not matter. As much as they can eat. It is never going to be easy but you can make it manageable. I am a ALL Leukemia survivor along with a Allogenic Bone Marrow Transplant. Never been the same since. We all went through hell. Not,saying it picnic now but it is manageable. |

Cancer sucks and chemo is probably worse. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 61991770 I really do not know what to tell you to make it better, but hang in there, it'll turn out how it turns out. Lost my wife to cancer. I'm so sorry about your wife. I live with that thought each day.....When is the last day? It hurts, never knowing the end. What a kind person you are to offer to fix our house...TYTY we are okay remodel starts soon. I do wish I had a name for you, AC just don't sound right. Sue, Mesa, AZ Just Waiting |

Not trying to make you feel bad, but hoping you see the gratitude you can cultivate... He is alive... your husband is well enough to kick the dog. He is able to sleep, and find some rest, rather than struggle awake in agony. You have friends... people who want to visit. You have the means to repair... many do not. You are well enough to care for a dog... many are not. You've had a 28 year marriage, congratulations for that. So sorry anyone deals with hard times, but dig deep and find appreciation, you have a lucky life. |

I missed my daughters wedding this passed weekend and it broke my heart. I tried and went as far as I could go and just could not go any futher. Carried a garbage can around throwing up. I finally just gave up. Your husband is going through a bad time knowing he can't do anything. I don't know what to tell you excepts God sees your troubles. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 57785819 United States 09/14/2015 11:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Chemo sucks. Just did 6 months but didn't get any down time. Let him rest and be there for him. If it wasn't for my wife, I would not have made it so well. Sorry things are rough for you and I hope they get better, but right now it's all about your husband. Find a good outlet (like GLP !) to come and vent, let out a little frustration and find some entertainment. Let it out here so your mind is ready when you go back to reality. I wish you both the best. Give it a bit of time for the trials to pass. |
