Hi everyone,
My partner was diagnosed Grade III anaplastic astrocytoma 2 years ago at 26 years old and has the usual side effects; fatigue, difficult concentrating, short term memory problems. He is doing great and has recently decided he wants to go back to work because he hates being at home and feels like he has no purpose, he used to work in marketing and spent his days working on PCs. He has recently gone back and planned on working 1 day a week to et into it, but 2 hours into his day he had to leave because of tenseness up his body and blurry vision from too much concentration.
Has anyone else had similar problems with concentration? Is it something that he could build up over time? I have suggested he works a few hours on and off over the day (his work are brilliant and very accomodating) but he is well and truley disheartened and now feels like he can't do anything at all and that his concentration will never get better. I am trying to give him as much positivity and encouragement as possible so would like hear some stories from others :)
Thank you,
Hannah
