Kat,

I couldn't organize anything or function very well after chemo. We have a business and I just couldn't concentrate very well and left most management decisions up to my husband and daughter in law. I think it took about a year after chemo (dose dense A/C) before I was pretty much my old self. I kept doing crossword puzzles as I heard they were good for the brain!

It WILL get better!
