I'm so sorry for what you're going through. It's such a difficult diagnosis and treatment plan to face. You will get through it however, but it takes takes time. I'm 8 months since my chemo and radiation, and 5 months since an Ivor Lewis esophogectomy. I had challenges along the way, but am feeling good and almost back to my new normal. My wife is the biggest reason I'm recovering as well as I am. She's been a rock throughout. Regarding the financial stress, did you speak to your social worker? They might be able to point you to resources that can help. Hope Lodge provides free housing during your stay if you aren't local. It's a great facility sponsored through the American Cancer Society. Best to you and your husband.
