Dear Chris...depending on your Dad's treatment, exhaustion is not uncommon.
The last few weeks of my radiation were the worst and I was unable to even
get out of bed. All I did was sleep...could not even eat or drink and
became dehydrated and had to be readmitted for fluid infusion. It will pass
but you should know that the old "pep" does not come back for at least 6-8
months following treatment. Be patient. God Bless.
John

Hi Nanc...been trying to keep up with what's going on here on the board. But
it's hit and miss alot, I confess. I saw that you said Don sleeps alot. My
Dad is doing that too now. Virginia said he sometimes goes to bed at 2:00
or
3:00 in the afternoon, skips his meal and sleeps all night. That worries
me.
Pls keep me informed, though I don't get to respond much individually I do
try to keep up. God bless you and Don. -chris
