    Sending you hugs Betty.  I hope you have someone to look out for you whilst you are going through this, it must have been such a shock for you.  I think you should talk to the McMillan line about your energy loss but probably the shock, worry and diagnosis and the treatment has definitely made you feel so tired.   Thinking of you and hope you are getting someone to look after you too.
