Leaving kids for 4-6weeks

My husband will be getting an autologus stem cell transplant at Mayo in Rochester. We live in Nebraska so we will be leaving our 14 and 12 yr old daughters during this ordeal. My parents are both deceased..my husbands step mom just had back surgery or his dad is busy with her. I have asked my brother and sister in law to help with my kids and they said they would. My other brother said he would help but feel like I am bothering him with all this. My niece and nephew offered assistance and my husbands sister. I am fearful of being with my husband during this ordeal and leaving my kids. Just started a new job in Febuary and they are allowing me to work part time while at Mayo. Just feeling a big stressed. Also have an MRI scheduled for next Tuesday. I had a meningioma removed in 2007. I have a new one on top of my head and the one they removed might be growing back. Sometimes I just want to scream!
