8 months agoThanks Karen. Finding support for myself is key, I know. Maybe framing counseling differently could help. Appreciate you sharing. Hope your husband’s immunotherapy is going well.

As a caregiver, Lisa’s point about wanting to help is so true. It makes us feel useful in a scary situation. But the open communication is key too. Maybe he doesn’t see it as a burden at all, but as teamwork.

Sending you strength, John. The waiting period before treatment starts can be incredibly difficult – so much uncertainty. Lean on any support system you have. And use this group – ask anything, vent anytime.
That’s a good point, Michael. The pressure to be ‘okay’. Maybe bringing it up medically rather than just emotionally is a better angle. Thank you.
