Hi, meant to say that as well as emotional support my 2 sisters have been wonderful. After each surgery, they cooked meals that could be frozen (curry, chilli, Bolognese etc.), arranged for groceries to be delivered (they do know my tastes very well), bought new soft pillows that really helped, especially after the surgery to remove all my lymph nodes, helped me choose pyjamas, soft night bras etc. As I'm now going on to have chemo, my sister took me to an upmarket salon for a wig fitting and a short re-style to match the wig. I'm not boasting and I know I'm extremely fortunate to have such a wonderful family (hubby and my adult sons have also been amazing), I just thought I'd share with you some of the practical things that have really helped me, and also meant that my family could help me, and that was important for them too. They're also organising a rota to take me to my many hospital visits! I wish you and your loved one all the best.
