580411 -    5.  Would be great if Amy or Steph could come home for a few weeks
580412 -        or a month to help Kim.  Hopefully, Kim can get some time off
580413 -        to focus on initial treatment and assessment.  Stage 4 presents
580414 -        a lot details and tasks that slip through the cracks because
580415 -        doctors and staff are busy.  Patients and care givers are
580416 -        emotionally fatigued and shocked, as you say.  Extra hands help
580417 -        keep the patient positive to implement treatments.  Hopefully,
580418 -        initial diagnosis will hold, and Ron will respond to prescribed
580419 -        care.  Millie's first diagnosis was a mistake, and her first
580420 -        treatment with AC failed.  We were always scrambling to move
580421 -        the team in time to be effective.  The big test is tolerating
580422 -        chemo.  Having family around might help, but everyone's
580423 -        different.

580427 -            cycles, which is 6 months, and that side effects are
580428 -            difficult to handle; which indicates the patient may need a
