Hello everyone, this is my first time on here, and the last month has not been great.
We took my husband into hospital thinking he had a chest infection, turned out to be stage 4 kidney scanner thats spread to his lungs and potentially to some muscles by his spine.
We have our first appointment with Oncology on Tuesday to discuss treatments and what not.
And so far, my husband has been handling it way better than me. He's talking about going sky diving while I'm internally screaming and trying to keep the house together.
I don't mind dotting on my husband, I'm happy to do anything and everything to keep him comfortable- but its the rest of it that I'm struggling with at the moment.
Like I've got the energy to cook- but not to wash the dishes or put them away. I can put the washing machine on- but hanging it up is a challenge when the brain fog sets in and all i wonna do is curl up beside him in bed.
We do have adult kids at home. And they do help out- but we are a neuro-spicy household with autism and ADHD in play- so getting them to do things in a timely fashion can be challenging.
Does anyone have any tips and tricks on how i could manage the house? Cause we haven't even started treatment yet and I'm already staring at the laundry basket like it might bite.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
