“…OTOH, I do have to ask how much time do the treatments take? What stage has his wife been classified? Everyone thinks “chemo” is one-size fits all but they are not. They vary greatly, both in ingredients and in duration and frequency, and also reaction.”
******************************************************************
It’s not just the treatments… it’s the recovery and “downtime” following each treatment. DeSantis and his wife have young children and likely don’t have a household full of servants and nannies. He’s caring for his family in addition to working.
That’s why I mentioned reaction.
See below for my sister’s experience. Down time wasn’t always that big a deal especially given the frequency.
I learned a lot from her struggles, including as I stated…it’s not what everyone assumes. Every day getting chemo meds, barfing endlessly, never out of bed. It’s just not like that for every treatment.
Definitely deSantis has a lot of responsibility and it does not help they are young and so are the kids. Very hard to handle kids with these diseases.
