Hey Scott,
I am a 36 year old who was diagnosed with Ewings Scarcoma in 2004, I
beat it, however my treatment consisted of 3 and 4 day cycles of
chemotherapy every 21 days. The therapy took up most of the day, and
I felt a bit nautious and lost most of my energy during treatment. I
wouldnt worry about work to much, concentrate on killing cancer.
