When a loved one is in and out of rounds of treatment, it changes the ways they need help, and they may not always ask. Some ways you can be strong caregiver:

I work full time, so managing fatigue is something I'm always focused on. Regular exercise is the key for me. I walk at least several days a week, go to a tai chi class twice a week, and do water aerobics on Saturdays with other cancer survivors. It not only helps fight fatigue, but it's also a great de-stresser.I get monthly massage therapy to keep me feeling good. I've established a great relationship with my massage therapist, who's been with me for 6 years of the journey.

My friends did small things like let me out of the car right in front of the door. Support groups are important. Sharing your experience with others with the same disease is so helpful.With good nutrition, whatever exercise you can manage, and an active social life, you can still lead a happy, productive life. I'm not saying it's easy because it's not. Quitting sugar, eating green, taking naps, getting massages, trying to lead a stress-free life, and keeping busy is exhausting.
