A month ago my son was diagnosed with cancer [View all]

He found it early stage 1, the doctors seem to be right on top of it. At least I think so.

He’s young 31 but he had a stroke two years ago so possibly that might complicate things.
Such as when they set up chemo for him some signs he was told to Watch for
He Said he already has from the stroke.

He finished one week of chemo so far has a couple more treatments then it’s just watch and check.

Of course Covid complicates things also. So when your normally isolated to some Degree with chemo it’s much more so with Covid.

I worry for him I can’t be around him because of needing to be isolated we went with his younger sister being his care since she lives in his house. I understand that but as mom I want to help him.

I think things Will be fine but the
Worry is there what if it comes back etc.

Sorry I’m rambling between his cancer, fires burning all around and still feeling stuff from a Fall that resulted in broken ribs and a sore back from a few weeks back going back to work after being out for so long from Covid shut down.
I think I’m stressed and needed to vent a little.
