Chemo is no walk in the park, I hope she can find some relief during the treatments and you can have the strength you need while you are doing caretaker. My wife had 10 years of that with my health problems and stood with me. You are a good person to be there for her. Don't forget to take care of Badger 1, too.

Thanks Bill; your thoughts are much appreciated! This board is frequently by good people!
The whole situation puts things, including cycling, in perspective. Mrs. Badger has had a very rough 3 or so years -- thyroid c; a near-fatal burst appendix (within an hour or so); now malignant/aggressive breast cancer -- and just turned 60. Retired a year and a half ago after a life-long full-time career as an RN caring for others. Life ain't fair sometimes, one thinks, but doesn't play favourites; she's a tough badger, and will get through it.
Thank you again.
