That makes sense.

I really like your radiation oncology nurse -- this is far from the first useful, thoughtful info you've received from that source!

I joined a online CancerCare support group for caregivers the year I was helping with caregiving for both Susan Palermo and Jack. I found it mildly helpful, though far from as helpful as I wanted it to be. Oddly enough given my usual proclivities, I just didn't engage with it all that much. It did help me see the wide variety of responses people have under such situations.
