LF, coupla suggestions.

1. Chemo buddies. Well, aren't the best chemo buddies the other patients anyway? How *I* would handle offers to come along-- "Thanks; I usually enjoy spending that time with my chemo buds, but if you want to drop in and spend some time, here's the schedule. What I'd really LOVE would be to be able to chat with you there or on the drive, if you can call me that day?"

2. Goals. In the 28-day cycle there must be goals you want to accomplish. OK, the daily view of what can get done is going to lead to frustration, but if you write the goals for each 28-day cycle as it comes, and post them, you will be surprised to see that they do actually come true, maybe not on the day you might have thought you would LIKE to do them, but you will see them advance. (People here will take note and track it with you, I bet.)

3. 28-day cycles. Well hell, you have been on one type of cycle for a long time. There are bound to be some remnants floating around in the back of your head-- the pain and hassle of the old cycle. If you do a compare/contrast list, the current cycle will be better under the control of your intentionality. And that will support the goals.

YMMV.
