[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP your mother sounds exhausting. You work and have a small child. If you're doing radiation you won't be able to do fun summer stuff in the sun unfortunately. So thanksgiving will actually be your first real chance to rest after treatment. Go. Have. Fun. Do not cook a meal for a bunch of people and spend half of the day scrubbing pots. See if your family can go someplace nice and relaxing. Get the hell out of dodge. Enjoy time with your child and spouse, who have also been under stress through all of this. You deserve it. [/quote] +1 Tell *everybody* that this Thanksgiving is for you and DH to do whatever feels right at the time. Maybe a getaway, maybe a staycation, but no hosting and cooking a traditional meal for sure. You will be getting your grip back on normal life, and that is plenty.[/quote]
