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. Quoting: beyond matrix 70326291 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. Hubby slept most of the day...so unlike him. He drinks lots of water...He was doing "great", but they increased the chemo from 80 to 100 I just know it was increased., with magnesium...that was three weeks ago with three doses to now. This is the last I hope...He has two weeks off and then CT scan...my prayer is that the cancer is gone. Forever. Just Waiting |

(OP) User ID: 19698721 United States 09/14/2015 11:19 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. Quoting: Gomez 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. WHAT A BRIGHT LIGHT YOU ARE!!!! Six months and no down time?????????? We were happy to have 5 days. Oh my God, Do you realize what a testimony you are? I as soon as I get off here, will say the bestest prayer I could ever say for you! You have given much hope to those, us, that are restless, in the word. TYTYTYTYTYTY. Just Waiting |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 68689794 United States 09/15/2015 01:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm sorry you and your husband have had to endure so much. The last 8 years have been rough ones for us and sometimes it feels like you just can't catch a break. I have a list of things I give thanks to God for every night before falling asleep. I have a wonderful husband. We have enough to eat and a roof over our heads. We have 3 children and 4 beautiful grandchildren. My husband has a decent paying job. It helps me stay positive by focusing on the good things in my life. Here are two Bible verses I repeat to myself in times of great despair. Psalms 34:14 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. I'm praying for you and your husband. God bless. |

You can always find someone to listen and help bring you up. We know it's just as hard for our wife, we are just helpless to do anything about it. Just remember, we still love you and you are what keeps us holding on. |

The thing that always makes me feel better is to count the blessings I do have and be grateful my plight is not worse than it is. Your husband is tired but still here. Chemo wipes out your immune system which I can tell you from experience is exhausting and not something you easily bounce back from. Perhaps you should inform your company that it is not a good time for a visit because of your husband's illness. Take as much stress as possible off of yourself. Right now you must stay strong to take care of your husband and yourself. Praying things get better for you both. |
Bluebird1 User ID: 66433951 United States 09/15/2015 09:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Please stay away from chemo and radiation. It breaks my heart to hear of people who believe that chemo and radiation should ever be utilized. Please learn the truth about the Cancer Industry. I do not like saying this to those who have suffered but Cancer (Candida) iis big business and little truth. Learn about keeping your body alkaline rather than acidic. Also, once you learn TRUTH, please tell others. |

I can't thank you all enough for sending prayers, important information. You all have brightened my heart. May God Bless everyone of you, in Jesus Precious Name. I know life in just one day can change for all of us. Just a little over one year ago. My husband took me to Vegas, first time we were ever there together. My daughter and son in law met us there for be a nice birthday day dinner for me. He rented a limo and we drove around sipping champagne and then the driver said we had to get out of the limo, car trouble. Well, guess where we pulled over? My husband planned all this, plus had us girls a whole day at the salon. Nails, make-up hair, and a facial. The vid is only five minutes. It's one of the best times in my life. Take care of the ones you love, time is shorter than we think. [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] Just Waiting |

I'm so very sorry. How are YOU holding up? I will say special prayers, I can't imagine three loved ones at once. I send you my heart with love and as many Blessings as possible. I know what you mean about chemo side effects. The problem here, is it escaped the lungs, and they gave him three months to live. He's still here. Thank God.

I had emergency surgery in June and have only started to feel better, so I can't imagine what seven months of chemo feels like. And.....I wonder about people who invite themselves to stay knowing what your family is going through. Perhaps you need to set some boundaries? Nothing wrong with that!! Please take good care of yourself, as I know how draining this all can be. Strip it back to one day at a time, you can make it through. Prayers for you and your husband. |
