I think if you can keep your loved ones close and in contact with you that is so necessary. Because you need people around you to help with doctor appointments, help with day to day things, help cook (that's a big one), help you to do things that you enjoy.
I think just keeping everyone in the loop and keep them up to date so that they are there for you. Learn to depend on others. They actually enjoy helping when they can.
