I think everything is all so new that everything has bubbled to the surface all at once. We have decided at this point to see how the chemo goes and go from there. I'm not sure that this is the right thing but my husband and family feel this is the best way to do it. I will call the cancer council about the financial planner and see how we go. 5 days ago my mental state was much worse than it is today, so I'm hoping I have turned the corner. The big things like the mortgage are a worry, but I can only do what I can do and who knows, I could be here for another 20 years! I have contacted canteen, just waiting for them to get back to me about the kids and trying to set up a network for them. I have an amazing support network, they just live a long way away. So in the event that things go pear shaped, I worry how my husband will cope. Hopefully, I still have a good long while to drive him batty though.
