I haven't been able to post as much lately...

SDianeL · May 25

I've been reading the posts but haven't been able to post as much lately. As many of you know, I was diagnosed with cancer in Dec 2023 and had to place my DH in memory care so I could get treatment. I had chemo and major surgery in 2024. My DH passed in August 2024 from Alzheimer's-Posterior Cortical Atrophy. In December 2025, biopsies show the cancer was back. I finished my chemo and now am having chest wall radiation 5 days a week for 5-1/2 weeks. I'm about half way through it. I'm extremely tired and nauseous. After radiation I will have more surgery. All thoughts and prayers greatly appreciated. Your support the last 3 years helped me so much. Just know that I think of you all every day and pray for your strength to care for your LO's. Diane

Oh my. Please rest, hydrate, binge watch tv, read…. We will still be here when you are able to deal with us. You really don’t need the feelings that come from reading all the posts right now.

Yes, I agree with Sunfish and always appreciate your words of wisdom here on this amazing forum. You have been through so much and I hope that you have the same sort of support through this journey that you gave to your DH through his. You are in my thoughts.
