Me too
Hello all,
There was a time when I thought the worst thing I would have to deal with in life was the disorganization that my ADD caused. hahahahaha! So, I didn't have those "stay on task, organization" skills to begin with - and now it's not much different. It has actually given me relief because my two guys, husband and son, expect chemobrain and point out to me all the time that I have a reason to be so forgetful and disorganized after all I have been through. Frankly, nothing has changed with my habits, just their idea of why it happens has changed and now suddenly it's expected and okay
I have hired a professional organizer, she comes twice a week and we now have a home that can be visited. The first week of my diagnosis I panicked that people wanted to visit me and I hired her and it's the most wonderful thing!
Pamper yourself, don't listen to the guys - get a housekeeper, an organizer or whatever it takes to get yourself comfortable. There is no way for them to understand what you are going through without experiencing it themselves so you just have to look to yourself for the understanding - treat yourself as if you were your own best friend and do what you would advise a close friend.
Have a great day!
Donna
