I hear ya on that. Congrats on having such an amazing family!!

I had kidney stones from hell last year, was on disability for 2 months.

This year I was diagnosed with HPV cancer in Jan (head and neck cancer). Started chemo and radiation in Feb and just finished treatments 2 weeks ago. I am on short term disability again until mid July. So the next 2 months I need to see if I will be able to go back to work or if I need to extend my disability a bit longer.

I am 56 and service heaters and air conditioners and in California they are mostly on rooftops and we get 100 degree weather most of the summer, so not sure how well I will be able to to jump back into things in the middle of our hottest months.

Due to the radiation on my head and neck, I lost my sense of taste and the ability to produce saliva. So eating is a challenge for me, along with the fact that I lost 30 pounds and went down to 147 pounds.

I also have a problem with dairy products now too and the foods that I used to love to eat, I struggle with eating now.

So I really feel for you with your eating struggles, most people don't realize what a pain in the ass it is when you can't eat normal like everyone else.
