    I figured it was due to the treatments. Thank you for saying as such. I know when Mom had cancer they said she could act different than the norm. He is still feeling bad and had a fever today. Refuses to go to the hospital. They had said if not better to bring him back, but I knew that would not happen. Still coughing and running to the bathroom. He scared me the other night because I heard him coughing then a loud bang. I went to see and he had sat up in the recliner to cough. The footrest was up and as he leaned forward the chair tipped forward & he went on the floor. He was alright, thank goodness.
    I thank you all for the prayers and thoughts! Katie

    So sorry to hear about your husband, My Dad had lung cancer and I took him to his treatments. It was very hard and frustrating for my Dad not to be in control of his body or health. Its a tough time to see a family member go through pain and not be able to either fix it or to be there 24 / 7. I crocheted a baby sweater while I took him to his treatments, it kept me calm. I think about that sweater a lot. My heart is with you and your husband. Take care of yourself.

    Yes, I went to several of his first Chemo treatments. I took my crochet and IPad. (Also, a thermos of coffee! LOL) Chemo is once a week so it is a long day. They serve us lunch. I seen others crocheting, watching movies, working on laptop.

    My Mother had breast cancer, we continued to pray for the doctor's wisdom to treat her, and her wisdom to accept it. It's a little time but so much worth it as now she is 98 years old and has a memory for all of us. Crocheting helps so much, however, prayer, helps so much more! God bless you and your husband during your trying time!! Continue to pray and stay close to God/Jesus/and the Holy Spirit!

    Sincerely,

    So sorry to hear about your husband. I lost my mom 5 years ago to cancer and her brother, my Uncle, is fighting the disease as we speak. My Uncle had horrible chemo brain as he got combative at times. His wife is 79 years old and is doing her best to take care of him by herself but is finding it exhausting and very frustrating. Please take care of yourself, that will be the best thing you can do for your husband. My thoughts are with you. Thank goodness for the art of crochet. God bless and take care!!
