You take it moment by moment. My guiding motto was: "This, too, shall pass."

BTW, my oncologist told me that, a few decades ago, the treatment for my kind of cancer consisted of giving the patient morphine to ease his final days. Medical science has made great strides, and you'll be one of the beneficiaries. Looking forward to welcoming you to the survivors' club when the last treatment ends!
