I'm pretty sure I fell into the above category when Andrew was going through chemo. It's not easy knowing the "right" thing to say to someone. I'm sure I put my foot in my mouth every single day. The entire thing was hard on everyone. Andrew, me, and the kids. He was really really sick for such a long time and it was so hard to watch. The worst part was that I didn't know how to help him. My main priority had to be the kids. And he was on isolation protocol for almost 9 weeks. In any case - he's through the worst of it and slowly starting to feel better. There were a few times where we didn't know what would happen - in the hospital for 8 days with a blood clot and an infection and back in the hospital a week or so later with a temperature of 104. He ultimately had to have a blood transfusion which made him feel so much better. From there it was mostly uphill with just a few little setbacks. Today - he is feeling much much better than he was 4 weeks ago. But again it's been almost 4 weeks without chemo. He's been back to work for 3 weeks which I think has helped him too. I'm sure being in a bed for most of the day is no fun. We are slowly getting our life back together which is nice. Hopefully he gets the all clear in the next few weeks from his various CT scans and blood tests.
