[quote=Anonymous]My mom was diagnosed with cancer when she was pregnant with her fourth child. We were fortunate that they could afford (just barely) to hire a nanny for us. She was in and out of the hospital for three years. My dad got to work by 6am every day so he could leave by 4 or 5 to visit her in the hospital and be home by seven to take care of us. He handled all weekend kid-related duties ( soccer games, birthday parties, etc) and took us all to the hospital every Sunday to see her. When she was home she was too frail to do much so he handled everything when he wasn't at work. We ate a lot of spaghetti and burgers/hot dogs and takeout Chinese food, but he somehow kept the whole family together and functioning. This is the same thing I would hope I could expect from my DH, although I don't have a lot of faith that it would turn out that way.[/quote]
