Depression is a mean thing. Dale battles with it daily, expanded and emphasized with post chemotherapy. He gets quiet, lethargic, and his essential tremors worsen. Besides all the physical ailments of cancer he deals with, depression takes as much of his energy as he can to keep it in control. He gets a boost with people contact, although, that can't always happen because of his condition and respect of his fragile immune system. Working with Dale's emotional well being has become a full time job. I am pretty stable, and as my mom says "a woman of substance," so the challenge is another adventure for me. Besides, Dale is worth it.
We go to radiology today for a double check that cancer is gone.
