How do I care for a toddler while I undergo chemo?

Hi Andy2559. I've just dropped by and noticed you've not yet had an answer to your post. I'm not sure any of the members on this group would be able to help so I would suggest it would be a good idea for you to ring the Macmillan Support Helpline (number is shown below) and ask their advice.

I'm sure others have had to deal with the same situation so I'm sure you'll get help there. I hope the Chemo goes well for you.

All the best, B xx

Hi, I am currently in the middle of chemo, I’ve had 4 rounds so far and I have a 2year old and a 4 month old baby. All I can say is that it will be difficult some days. I have my parents to help when I need them to. I would definitely have a back up plan if you can. Although you will start to see a pattern of when your worst days will be it is quite unpredictable in the beginning. I would say I’ve only had a few days so far when I absolutely couldn’t have looked after the children. 
Try to think of some easy activities you can pull out when you aren’t feeling well and if all else fails don’t feel too guilty if your little one has a day or two of watching tv all day. Good luck x

This is good to know. I have a 12 year old and an 8 month old and due to start Chemo in September. So same concerns really. 

This is great to know. Thank you for your response and good luck with the rest of your treatment too x

Thank you Mrs BJH. I have an oncologist appointment but will definitely ring if I don’t get the information I need x
