I had dim here but I had side effect from that too. Also indole 3...I'm feeling really lost now cause I'm alone with this.... Really scared about making it with surgery again to remove nodes..and have tube to empty every 3hours. I will be 86 Thursday and no plans.. Be alone again....people never guess my age as I look younger for some reason and Drs see I'm mobile so they don't really know me. Sad. So sad

Is there a visiting nurse organization or senior services organization in your community? Sometimes a local volunteer ambulance/EMT unit will address a daily need … especially as it will be for a limited time.

Your doctors office could possibly help you locate a service for the drain . There may be breast cancer support groups in your area. There are support groups online .

But reaching out into your community for connecting with people, generally, might be a good idea especially as cooler months arrive. Libraries often have general audience as well as senior dedicated programs.

I’m so sorry you’re alone. Maybe you can call the pastor’s office of a nearby church? They could direct you to some help? Or perhaps the hospital where you’re having/had surgery has a pastoral office? I wish I could be of more help/suggestions. When my mother was ill finding help was very difficult. No one ever called me back. 🙏
