Dear Kari
I am sorry that you are going through all this at home as well as dealing with a stage 4 diagnosis. I was diagnosed stage 4 in August last year and have had major surgery on my vertebrae and then a lumpectomy. My other half has been great but sometimes he does drive me crazy. It is a very difficult time physically and emotionally and you have the additional task of looking after three teenagers! You must be exhausted and then to top it off you are going back to work and starting your hormone treatment.
Is it an option for you to cut back on your work and concentrate on yourself for a while. Hormone therapy can knock the wind out of you and the side effects are pretty average for some of us.
I am sorry to say but he needs to step up to the mark a little. You are doing far too much and I am afraid that this will take a toll on your health and well being if you don't rest some more. I am sure that the kids will help you out if you ask. They are very lucky to have you.
Take care Kari and know that we are all here to support one another.
Love
Sandra
