Time seems to take on a different dimension when your loved one is going through treatment. It seems, at times, that you are having an out of body experience as you wait with her before a doctor’s appointment, or while she’s getting chemo, or when she’s getting a radiation treatment. You look over at the magazine rack, but there’s nothing for you to read. And you don’t know what to do, some times. Just take a deep breath, and know you are doing the best thing of all – you’re there with her. And that’s good enough.

I try to bring along a book that takes my mind away from things. Something that’s engaging, which I bring along when I take my mom to her appointments. Any other ideas?
