@ruralmum2, don’t be too hard on yourself. I cried several times when first diagnosed. My cancer is similar to yours ( hormone +, Her2- but I am stage 3, grade 3).Even though I have no kids, I found it hard to plan anything during the period I was going through chemo andRadiation was everyday. My hubby did everything including cooking as my hands were extremely sensitive when it goes near heat (during chemo).
Grab all support you can get your hands on esp that you have teenage kids. It’s good that your hubby goes with you. My hubby went to all appointments with me and I felt supported with his presence (like you, I told my hubby I can go alone but he insisted on taking me).
I’ve just completed ‘active’ treatment. It’s almost 10 months since I was diagnosed in July 2023. Hence, like what Blossom1961 suggested, find friends / relatives who offer to help. Some of my friends helped prepared some meals and some help with shopping our groceries.

All the best with your treatment plan. Sending you virtual 🤗 hugs.
